Put the rules into context
8 ÷ (3 − 8 ÷ 3) = 24. Use the example as a guide rather than a substitute for reading your board. Read the matching step again.
Where a round can go wrong
Division and subtraction depend on selection order; zero division is blocked. Read the feedback to see why an action did not have the expected result. Compare the worked example with your own position. Use the reasoning, not an answer copied from a different board.
