Figure This Out...

Someone asked me to come to the answer of 10 by using four 4's in any combination. Getting the number 10 is rough. Can anyone do it?

i can do it with 5 4's easily, but not 4 4's easily.

 

[munruss]

yeah, same with me. But it has to be four 4's. It's tough...

4+(sqrt4)+(sqrt4)+(sqrt4)=10

4+2+2+2=10


Basic Math..

You are right..

4+4+4-(sqrt4)=10
or
4*4-(4+(sqrt4))=10

or...
4 x 4 - 4 - (sqrt)4)

edit:

4+4+4-(sqrt4)=10
or
4*4-(4+(sqrt4))=10

guess that's the same thing
