The rules are simple.

- You must use the four given numbers to equal 24.
- You can only use each number once unless that number comes up again as a sum/product/difference/quotient.
- You are free to use any methods such as addition, subtraction, division, multiplication, distributing, exponents, etc.
- Be creative, there are multiple ways of solving this puzzle.

Now here are the first round of numbers.

10, 1, 7, 6

Have fun!

HINT: One of the solutions to this puzzle is (7 - 1) x (10 - 6). Can you find more?

A solution is not a hint it's a solution

@913,456 (Catherine !ttGirlsPl2)

So when you said "could be", you meant "is"?

No, because there are multiple answers.

But it's not a hint, it's still a *possible solution.

Yeah, it gives away a solution, there's still more out there.
