ABCDE
1
Instructions
2
Please add one equation per line.
3
Blanks may be any whole, positive number from 1 to 6, I.e. as rolled on a six-sided die).
4
Only use the basic operations (➕➖✖️➗).
5
You may include from one to four blank spaces so long as the equation is solvable.
6
Get as crazy as you want with these, but bear in mind that this game will need to be playable by kids, maybe 8 and up, so I may not use equations that are too difficult.
7
You may include blanks on the right side of the equal sign, but do not use any operations on the right of the equal sign (I.e. _✖️2=_ is fine but 4➖_=_➕2 is not).
8
Final answers should be a whole number (no decimals or fractions), and positive.
9
Please include with each submitted equation the number of possible combinations that will legally solve that equation (I.e. _➕_=2 has one possible combination where _➕_=4 has two combinations). You don't need to include the actual combinations as I'll need to review, check and confirm that all equations are solvable within the confines of the game.
10
I have just about all I need in the way of single blank equations.
11
Please do not modify or remove someone else's equation.
12
If you find an error, please use the comment column to point out errors or equations that are unsolvable. I will review each and every equation prior to printing it on a card.
13
If you want, include a name (real name, forum username, whatever you like so long as it isn't offensive) and I'll print it on the card with the equation (if I use that equation) - bear in mind that I may have already had the equation or someone else may have already submitted that equation.

1_+3=_3chadmartNote that you don't have to provide this info, but in the example here, the first blank can be 1, 2 or 3, and those would make the answer 4, 5 or 6 respectively. So three combinations of dice will make this a solved equation.
