I may have miscounted.

Correct :)

Puzzle 47:

This is a futoshiki puzzle. Every square contains a number. Complete the grid such that every row and column contains the numbers 1 to the 7. The arrows on the grid are less-than and greater-than signs, and always point to a smaller number. i.e. 1 < 4, 3 < 5, 2 > 1, etc.

I hate number puzzles because I can’t help but feel I’ve miscounted

Also ignore the cyan numbers. They were just to help me remember they can’t be changed

Wrong, mate. Your 1 and 6 in the top row don’t follow the < > rules.

You’re nearly there. That’s the first half of the answer.

Line up now in alphabetical order.

Correct.

Puzzle 49:

Fill in the missing numbers with the digits 1 to 9. A diamond shape in the middle means that the four numbers around it add to 20. Each uses a different way to add to 20, i.e. if there is already 1 + 3 + 7 + 9, then there will not be another using the digits 1, 3, 7 and 9 (in any order). The same digit isn’t allowed to touch, even diagonally.

I feel like this has more than one possible answer.

No, that’s what I got too. I thought that the far left two(3,5) and the bottom right two (8,1) could be different, but I checked and they can’t I don’t think. Shouldn’t have wasted my time though…

1+3+8+9 equals 21

There isn’t a combination of those numbers anywhere in the posted solution.

They usually come at a consistent time, like Noon PST. So like 4 hours

8-9PM GMT every day ;)

Puzzle 50:

Keeping the numbers 1-9 in order and using any mathematical symbols (e.g. +, -, x, /), make 100. The person who PMs me the most combinations by this time tomorrow gets one point. For example: (1 + 2) – 3 + ((4 × 5) – 6) / 7 + 8 + (9 × 10) = 100 would count if you used the numbers 1-10. Because you cannot put numbers together, 12 + 3 – 4 + 5 + 67 + 8 + 9 = 100 doesn’t count
