The Impossible 24 Game???

Asked by simpsons17371 in Math & Science

Tags: answer, math, all, impossible

Today during school I came across a couple of kids trying to figure out one of the cards of "The 24 Game". This immediately struct me as odd, because being seniors it is very childish to play the game. If you don't know how it works, the rules are:

1.) Use all numbers once and only once
2.) You can only use the four basic math functions (+ - / *)
3.) Your answer has to turn out to be 24

So as I was saying, I along with many others spent 20 minutes trying to figure it out and got no where, it has been bothering me all day. The game is designed for elementary school kids, and I'm in AP Calculus as a sophmore in high school and can't figure it out. And some of my friends were helping me and they got 1600's on the SAT's and couldn't get it. So I thought I would post it here and see if any of you could get the answer, or if it is a misprint...I wasn't sure if it was a misprint or not, because the directions of the game say that all have atleast one section.

So here are the numbers:

7
3 3
5

Have fun, don't let it keep you up at night. ;)
