    In the following box there is a Snakes and ladders like grid. In this grid you must
    • Only use the numbers 1 to 9
    • Only use these numbers once each. There are 9 boxes to fill in.

    Tbh, I haven't done math homework, or math in general for the past two school years. My school is the top middle school in the county.
    Real education, huh?

    Divide by the number you fill in at the next box.
    e.g. 9/3=3 6/2=3

    Incorrect, it's C. Always choose C whe you don't know the answer.

    For the snakes and ladders type math are we supposed to go from start to finish doing the math sequentially or use the order of operations rule?

    9 + 13 = 22
    22 x 3 = 66
    66 / 2 = 33
    33 + 7 = 40
    40 + 12 = 52
    52 x 6 = 312
    312 - 5 = 307
    307 - 11 = 296
    296 + 8 = 304
    304 x 1 = 304
    304 / 4 = 76
    76 - 10 = 66

    It seems alright to me? Am I missing something incredibly simple?

    Edit : 9+13*3/2+7+12*6-5-11+88*1/4-10 <--- It's +8 :D
