It's not cheating anymore, it's "using available resources".

Re: Nothing here?
It looks as though some posters here need more of a challenge!
I got 40, and 96, no problem, but I don’t get 201.
So maybe some easy for some of us and harder ones for the clever people.

Re: Nothing here?
Did you read the explanation? I can accept that answer as, like 40 and 96, the person giving that answer has explained their reasoning. That’s fine. For me the only answer that I like is 96 because as someone who looks for patterns in numbers that is the only pure reasoning. The only times that I have ever found something as odd as the 201 explanation was when I was told that 00 model railways are built as a scale of 4mm:an inch and when helping a friend to put the roof on his house he gave a measurement as 1 metre 18 inches.

I guess you didn't see the smiley face and was only answering your post where you just said
"Tricheur(euse)!!"

Deleted, maths still not my strong point.

I must be stupid again. I could only get the 40, I never saw a 96!
