Four 4's

How do you get 19 by using four 4’s? You can put any operation in-between the numbers. And you can use 44 and 4.4, but each of those equals 2 fours. Here’s an example:

To get 1 you could do: 4 x 4 / 4 / 4= 1

(4/4) x (4/4)= 1

I found out 14 ways to get 1. But I need to know how to find out 19!!!

Help please!

Answer #1

11 is 44÷(sqrt4+sqrt4)

Answer #2

It id 4with a mini one on the top, you cant do it on the computer then plus 4 minus 4 = 1

love kelly…

I got em all up to 20 but 11 does anyone know please help me!!

Answer #3

no, its not my homework, it was a brain teaser we had. I wasn’t in class because I had to leave school early so everyone has been bugging me about it. Every number up to 113 can be made from four 4’s.

Answer #4

This is an old math puzzle, only the aim is to construct as many integers as you can using four fours, not just 19.

You’re going to need a math operation that you might not be familiar with, called “factorial”. Finding the factorial of a number x is pretty easy: You just multiply all the natural numbers less than or equal to x together.

Four factorial is written as 4!, and here’s how you calculate it: 4!=432*1 4!=24

Answer #5

Hmmm… this wouldn’t be your homework would it?

Answer #6

4! − 4 − (4 ÷ 4)

It’s using what cthulhu explained… because 4!=24, and 24-4=20… and 4 divided by 4 is one, so 20 - 1 = 19!

I don’t know if that made sense, but if you have questions just funmail or ask here!

Answer #7

Ok I really SUCK at math so I cant help you there! and thanx for answering my Question! if you do another question I will answer that!

Answer #8

hmm. well 44/4+4+4 would be 19, but that is five 4’s…

well. this is going to bother me, so I’ll think about it for a while and post if I think of anything?
