Code Breaker – Level 1 – Medium

Other Puzzles

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.

7 = F | 4 = D | 16 = M | 19 = B | 11 = P | 6 = O | 17 = W | 5 = C | 9 = R | 12 = H

Your Workings For Code Breaker

1) (x+0)(x+8) – (x+3)(x+7) = -31
2) 7(x-4) + 7 = 4(x-7) + 34
3) (x-2) + 5(x+0) = 2(x-3) + 28
4) (x+3)(x+3) – x² + 2x + 10 = 155
5) 6(x+6) – 5(x+0) = 40

Code Breaker – Medium

Medium difficulty usually means the algebra requires more steps (brackets, collecting like terms, possibly factorising) before you can translate numbers into letters.

Best workflow:

  • Solve each equation with one algebra move per line (keeps errors down).
  • Record answers in strict order (1 → value, 2 → value…).
  • Convert each value using the map, then anagram the letters into a themed word.

Anagram tip: set aside any letters you suspect are “extras” only after you’ve tried a couple of sensible word shapes.
