Code Breaker Level 1 Medium maths puzzle involving anagram, letter map, letters and rational numbers

Code Breaker – Level 1 – Medium

Home » Puzzles » Code Breaker » Level 1 - Medium » Code Breaker – Level 1 – Medium
Topics: anagram, anagrams, letter map, letters, rational numbers, rounding

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.

0 = R | 11 = C | 9 = A | 2 = M | 19 = N | 8 = J | 17 = D | 13 = H | 15 = T | 20 = E

Your Workings For Code Breaker

1) (x+7) + 2(x+2) = 7(x-1) – 42

Code Breaker – Medium

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.
