Arithmetic

Today, you're going to play Countdown. 

 

Have you ever seen the TV program?  

 

Watch the clip before you start today's activity.

You are going to use these digits: 3, 5, 8, 2, 9, 6 and try to make the target number 56.

 

You can only use each digit once but you can use any of the 4 mathematical operations as many times as you want.

 

If you are feeling brave, you can even use the countdown timer.
