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.

8 = H | 11 = P | 7 = D | 9 = T | 5 = B | 16 = L | 15 = N | 1 = A | 2 = V | 13 = E

Your Workings For Code Breaker

1) (x-6)(x+4) – x² – x – 5 = -44
2) 8(x-1) + 5 = 3(x+0) + 77
3) (x+6)(x-7) – (x-5)(x-4) = 42
4) (x-5) + 4(x-3) = 7(x-6) – 5
5) 2(x-4) – 4(x+7) = -50

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.
