How do you use 3, 3, 8, and 8 to make 24?

Each number must be used exactly once, and only addition, subtraction, multiplication, division, and parentheses can be used.


Solution

8 / (3 – (8 / 3)) = 8 / (1 / 3) = 24

This one is a little trickier than the average “24 Game” setup, because it requires parentheses – you must subtract a fraction from one of the numbers and then divide by that result.
