riddle - Easy mathametics

Using the numbers,
2, 4, 6, 8,

either by adding, subtracting, dividing and multiplying

try and get the answer 25

You can only use the numbers,
2, 4, 6, 8, Once

I must confess I'm a bit stuck.

Can we use indices / powers ?

The only solution I have is one with powers: 5 ^((6+4)-8) = 5^(10-8) = 5^2 = 25

i been stuck on this for time

sorry dear dont have a clue what that means, but, if it means its going to give the answer you can use what you want, fingers, toes, counting beads calculators...

okay my mistake BIG MISTAKE not 4, 5, 6, 8,

its

2, 4, 6, 8,

i stick my head in the ground!!

original post ammended.

tried that...and u get 23! I've tried loads of mind boggling equations but not getting the '25'.

If this is easy maths...what's difficult?

8.4 x 6 / 2 = 25.2...that's the closest i got.

I give up!
