If a combination of arithmetic functions is used, then keep in mind the following order of operations you learned in math class:
Rule 1: First perform any calculations inside parentheses, if they exist.
Rule 2: Next perform all multiplications and divisions
Rule 3: Lastly, perform all additions and subtractions
The order of operation rules are demonstrated in the following examples:
(8 – 5) x 7 = 21 (Equa-21)
8 x 12 ÷ 6 = 16 (Equa-16)
6 x 3 + 5 = 23 (Equa-23)
11 + 12 ÷ 4 = 14 (Equa-14)
Each Arithmo puzzle employs the above basic rules, but it will also have its own set of specific rules. Please read all the rules carefully for maximum enjoyment.
In Square grids, adjacent numbers are 3 numbers connected horizontally (all in the same row, Figure 1), vertically (all in the same column, Figure 2), or in an “L” shape (Figure 3).
Figure 1: Equa-16 (horizontal)
Figure 2: Equa-21 (vertical)
Figure 3: Equa-23 (L-shaped)
Figures 4 and 5 show INCORRECT ways to connect 3 numbers in a Square grid
Figure 4: Incorrect connection in the square grid
Figure 5: Incorrect connection in the square grid
In a Hexagon shaped grid, adjacent numbers are 3 numbers who share a common side that intersect at the black dot (as shown in Figures 6 and 7). In the Figures 8 and 9 are INCORRECT ways to connect 3 numbers in a Hexagon grid
Figure 6: Adjacent numbers share a common side in the Hexagon grid
Figure 7: Adjacent numbers share a common side in the Hexagon grid
Figure 8: Incorrect connection in the Hexagon grid
Figure 9: Incorrect connection in the Hexagon grid
In a Rhombus shaped grid, adjacent numbers are 3 numbers who share a common side that intersect at the black dot (as shown in Figures 10 and 11). Figures 12 and 13 show INCORRECT ways to connect 3 numbers in a Rhombus grid
Figure 10: Adjacent numbers share a common side in the Rhombus grid
Figure 11: Adjacent numbers share a common side in the Rhombus grid
Figure 12: Incorrect connection in the Rhombus grid
Figure 13: Incorrect connection in the Rhombus grid
In a Triangle grid, adjacent numbers are 3 numbers in the same direction line (Figures 14 and 15). Figures 16 and 17 show INCORRECT ways to connect 3 numbers in a Triangle grid
Figure 14: Sample of straight connection in triangular grid
Figure 15: Sample of straight connection in triangular grid
Figure 16: Incorrect connection in the Triangle grid
Figure 17: Incorrect connection in the Triangle grid
In a Circle grid, adjacent numbers are 3 numbers that can be connected in the same ring of the circle (Figure 18), or in the same “slice” of the circle (Figure 19). Figures 20 and 21 show INCORRECT ways to connect 3 numbers in a Circular grid
Figure 18: Sample of straight connection in circular grid (same ring of the circle)
Figure 19: Sample of straight connection in circular grid (same slice of the circle)
Figure 20: Incorrect connection in the Circular grid
Figure 21: Incorrect connection in the Circular grid
The goal is different in each puzzle, but usually it’s finding three connected numbers that equal a certain product, or figuring out which product cannot be found in the grid.
As long as you know these basics, you’re set to play any Arithmo game
