1.What is this math puzzle?
This math puzzle is a logic puzzle that combines arithmetic and deduction. Match pairs from the strip to the 4×4 grid, where each pair appears twice: once as a difference (larger minus smaller) and once as a product. If your strip has 5 and 7, find cells with 2 (7-5) and 35 (5×7) in this challenging math puzzle.
2.How do I play this math puzzle?
Select your puzzle difficulty level, then fill each grid cell by choosing two values from the bottom strip and an operator (- or ×). All input numbers MUST come from the bottom strip—each unique number can be used at most twice. Click values to mark them as used. Each pair must be used exactly twice—once for subtraction, once for multiplication. Click 'Check Solution' to verify your math puzzle answer.
