For Android, in French, there is "Le bon compte" where you have a target number that must be reached by combining 6 other numbers pulled randomly and by using only the 4 operators. Each number can be used only once.

For example you have the six numbers: 5, 9, 2, 4, 1, 4 and the target number is 820
The solution is:
5x4=20
20x4=80
80+2=82
9+1=10
82x10=820

This is based on the TV game "Des chiffres et des lettres" which includes also a letter game where candidats need to find the longest word that can be written with a set of random letters.
