PoV #6: Math Squares
Competing: Kathleen, Eric, Donna, Anthony, Warren, Nathan
As you guys might have guessed, this veto will be pretty simple - solve as many of the math puzzles below in 24 hours as you possibly can. Solve using order of operations - multiplication/division first, then adding/subtracting. Each number can only be used once. For each correct 3x3 puzzle solved, you will receive 1 point. The 4x4 square is worth 3 points and you will use each number 1-16 once in it. Whoever ends up with the most amount of points will win the power of veto. If there is a tie, whoever sent in first will win. You do not need to complete the puzzles in paint - you can send me the numbers from left to right top to bottom for each puzzle and that will count. In example:
Puzzle 1
195
342
768
Puzzle 6
11 5 16 4
3 12 9 8
1 6 10 2
7 13 15 14
Good luck houseguests, you have 24 hours.
