What is a Math Puzzle?
A math calculation is cut into pieces and is scrambled. Can you find a way to put the parts together correctly, so that the calculation is visible and can be solved? Calculate the final result as last step.
The skill level to solve these exercises rises with the number of pices and the length of the equation.
Tips for easier solutions
- Try to identify the first and last piece in the sequence.
- Try to find operands or digits that have specific forms and find the right counter parts.
- Look at the left and right borders of every piece: Sometimes only very little pixels of a neighbouring piece is visible.
