McREL: Turning what works in teaching, leading, and learning into innovation and results

Nabu's Knee-knocker SignHint



There are several ways you could start working on this problem. Here is one way.

Look for doubles among the numbers in the box. These are choices for the dots at the beginning and end of a 2x arrow.

117 and 234

78 and 156

Try one of these choices for the first 2x arrow. Notice that if you make the first choice, you will then need to subtract 27 from 234. The end of the -27 arrow would be 207, and that number is not available. So you must choose 78 and 156 for the first 2x arrow.
