Earlier, a brain teaser shared on Reddit left people scratching their heads. The question reads, “I’ve been trying to solve this for a while now; ChatGPTis too dumb to figure it out. You are given a set of numbers (1,2,7,8,50,75), and your goal is to reach the number ‘796’ using the numbers given to you. You can use addition, subtraction, multiplication and division to reach the target number, you can only use each number once, and you cannot join the numbers (e.g. ‘1’ and ‘2’ cannot become ‘12’); how do you get to the target number.”
Can you solve this one as well?
