numbers rewards players with up to 3 stars; You will get 3 stars for exactly hitting the target, 2 stars if you are 10 from the target, and 1 star if you are 25 from the target. Players can start a new operation by choosing a different number, fractions or negative numbers are not accepted. New puzzles are released daily at midnight.
When working on a target from Digits, one of the first things you can do is look up factor pairs from the target number, which can sometimes clue you in the direction you want to go. This is often the last operation to solve, and you will use other operations to get to the numbers you need for the final factor pair.
