Toughest Riddle Ever - see if you can get it
 

Challenge 24. 7373.

For those of you that don't know how it works, you use all 4 numbers once and use the four basic math functions to get to 24. For example if you have 4444, you do 4*4 + 4 + 4 = 24.

SHOOT!

I'm not sure if this violates the rules, but:

x = 7 * 3
y = (3 - 7)

(x)-(y)-(x/x) = 24

ya cause its the wrong answer, can you use variables like that?

Your answer comes out to 25, unless I'm missing something.

I got the answer, no? I used the standard functions, only used each number once, and came out with 24. So, how's it wrong?

It looks like you didn't actually use each number once.

You didn't use each number once. Just cos you said x = 7*3, you still used x multiple times, and therefore used 7,3 multiple times.
