This is an excellent lesson starter, end filler, or the basis of a whole lesson's number work! Using the randomly selected 6 numbers, the objective is to use these numbers, with the 4 normal number operations, to obtain the randomly generated target number or as close to it as possible. No number may be used more than once, but you do not have to use all 6 numbers.
