In the 662 round between Jon and Paul, it was also possible to just multiply all the numbers except 10 and then subtract by the remaining 10: 7 x 6 x 4 x 2 x 2 = 672 672 - 10 = 662 And in the round where Joe tried to solve an impossible problem, the closest you could get is 561: 25 x 2 = 50 50 + 1 = 51 4 x 3 = 12 12 - 1 = 11 51 x 11 = 561 This is almost certainly how Rachel got one away. Finally, since the 949 round went without a solution at least in this video (Sarah Millican and Alan Carr), and it's a bit difficult, here's one potential solution: 75 x 6 = 450 50 + 6 = 56 56 x 9 = 504 504 + 450 = 954 954 - 5 = 949
