There is an episode of Taskmaster where Joe Thomas does a bunch of math in his head and I saw in the comments a bunch of women just loosing it at how sexy he was and my female roommate confirmed that it was sexy.

And then I found clips of this show and saw Rachel knocking out math problems like it was nothing and totally understood.
She probably looked at it and knew that anything with a hundreds number that's a multiple of 3 (because 300 = 30 x 10) and has 30, 60, or 90 at the end of it is divisible by 30. She probably tried to make 25 + 6 work at first, because that's 31 immediately, but you can't make 30 with the remaining numbers, so she would have moved on to 62 x 15 next.
@@jonb3935 I did 25x4 = 100 100x9 = 900 50/10 = 5 5x6 = 30 900+30 = 930. Which is basically the same with the multiplication and division in a different order.

I'm so used to it having such fucked up solutions that I always miss the obvious way. That 904 one, I did 75×3=225+1=226×4=904. It took me so long and I was so proud of it and then I realised it was way easier
Idk how I was able to do this in 30 seconds but I got the answer to the first one lmao 25x4=100 100x9=900 50 divided by 10=5 5x6=30 and add that to 900 to get 930 :)
I went through the 930 one before it got to the bit and made the exact same mistake as Johnny Vegas EDIT: I made the same fucking mistake 5 minutes later
The odds are pretty high actually. They came up 1,2,3,4,5, and 6. 3x4=12 12+5=17 17x6=102 1+2=3 3x102=306 And there are a lot more ways to do it, that was just the easiest.
Probably took me longer than half a minute and I went a long way around but ((9 x 8) + 25) x (2 + 3) = 485 too. That’s the trouble with being a pure mathematician, you get shit at doing quick arithmetic and always look for a more complicated solution.
@bad1dobby Either pro or con for the channel, I don't know or care, but what is satisfying to me is there are also some legitimate people trying to be funny with, for example, blink 182, who are quite probably going to be part of the mass ban which will inevitably follow.
The ironic thing about Everybody Loves Raymond is that everybody doesn't. Or do I mean, not everybody does? I do though. Well, like him at least - or liked. Is he still active?

how does a normal human look at 930 and instantly know that's 62x15? Rachel is incredible.
She's good at maths, that's why she's on the show.
On a side note, you can see that 62 is 2/3 of 93, so 15x would equal 930.
@@johnmartinez7440 thanks for the side note, that's a useful tip

62 x 10 is 620, then add half of it again, 620 + 310 = 930.
For the 930 ( 2:44 ) one there’s a much easier way.
25x4=100
100x9=900

Rachel being Rachel for the first one; easier way of doing it is 25x4x9, then 50x6/10 = 930
That female mask is scary lol 😂
I got the third and the fourth one right, for the third, 7+4x10x6+2=662, for the fourth, 8+1x(25+75)+4=904
2:46 I'm surprised Rachel didn't go for the simpler solution like she often does. 6 - 4 = 2 * 9 = 18 + 25 + 50 = 93 * 10= 930
Paul should have simply used the other 2.
I got the first one a different way:
100x7=700, 700-9=691, 691-(8/8)=690
Same here.👍
Katherine knows us way to well, she knows about the sanga....
The second one could be done with some more easier way
25x4x9+50÷10×6 = 930
I'm so used to it having such fucked up solutions that I always miss the obvious way. That 904 one, I did 75×3=225+1=226×4=904. It took me so long and I was so proud of it and then I realised it was way easier
I had a go along with Paul and Jon
6 x 7 is 42
2 x 4 is 8 and 8 x 2 is 16
16 x 42 is 672
And then 672 - 10 is 662
Idk how I was able to do this in 30 seconds but I got the answer to the first one lmao
25x4=100
100x9=900
50 divided by 10=5
5x6=30 and add that to 900 to get 930
:)
I am dumb, for the last one I saw 8,3,2 left and thought ok now how can I make ten...By doing 8 - 3 = 5 x 2 = 10

25 75 3 8 4 1
904
(904 / 4 = 226 )
(Goal is 226)
75 × 3 = 225
225 + 1 = 226
226 × 4 = 904
Not sure about the rules, but you do you have to use the 8 as well?
If so, you can:
25 x (8 + 1) = 225
(225 + 75) x 3 = 900
900 + 4 = 904
