&lt;mdoxml version=&quot;1.0&quot;&gt;After working through &lt;a href=&quot;/9406&quot;&gt;Just Four Numbers&lt;/a&gt; you can move onto trying to get answers up to $60$ using multiplication as well as addition and subtraction.&lt;br&gt;&lt;/br&gt;
&lt;br&gt;&lt;/br&gt;
Taking the example we started in Just Four Numbers we could now have,&lt;br&gt;&lt;/br&gt;
&lt;br&gt;&lt;/br&gt;
$(3 \times 10) + 1 = 31$&lt;br&gt;&lt;/br&gt;
$10 \times (7 - 3 ) -4 = 39$&lt;br&gt;&lt;/br&gt;
&lt;br&gt;&lt;/br&gt;
So you could carry on with these four numbers and try to getas many of the answers from $1$ to $60$.&lt;br&gt;&lt;/br&gt;
Or, of course choose you own four numbers ( remember they&amp;#39;re to be from $1$ to $10$ and no duplications and you can only use a number once in each calculation you invent.&lt;/mdoxml&gt;</indexXML>
