Code Breaker Puzzle

Code Breaker – Level 1 – Medium

Each correct answer gives a number. Use the scrambled letter map to translate those numbers into letters. The five letters you uncover form an anagram – solve it to unlock the codeword. Round normally to get to a rational number, if needed.

13 = E | 15 = L | 6 = G | 7 = C | 17 = J | 4 = Y | 18 = R | 0 = P | 5 = V | 3 = K

Your Workings For Code Breaker

1) 8(x+7) – 1 = 5(x+2) + 66
2) (x+1)(x+3) – x² + 8x + 6 = 189
3) 3(x+3) – 7(x-1) = -36
4) (x+1)(x+3) – (x+0)(x-1) = 93

Watch for different equation types: some Code Breakers mix “solve for x” with other tasks (like identifying a constant term after expanding).

  • If it says solve, isolate the variable and compute the value.
  • If it says expand or constant term, do the expansion and take the requested part.
  • If it says positive solution or larger solution, pick the correct root after factorising/solving.

Then translate each numeric result using the map and anagram the letters into the final word.
