To turn call the candidates a row, which an Assistant of the presenter of that row takes any tile. When there are six numbers drawn, turns the Assistant three roles with different figures, making a three-digit number is formed (100-999).

 * 3 local version
 * 3.1 Belgium

 * 4 Trivia

Example:

Numbers: 6, 10, 25, 50, 75, 5

Outcome: 728

Solution: 75 * 10-((6 + 5) * (50/25)) = 750-(11 * 2) = 750-22 = 728 ==Letters[ Edit] == Letters in the section are eight or nine random letters drawn; ask the participants to that end to turn a vowel or consonant to. After drawing the letters, the participants are given a cooling-off period in which they are trying to form a Word with these letters as long as possible. The winner is the candidate with the longest word. ==Local version<span class="mw-editsection-bracket" len="1" style="color:rgb(85,85,85);">[ Edit<span class="mw-editsection-bracket" len="1" style="color:rgb(85,85,85);">] == ===Belgium<span class="mw-editsection" len="331" style="-webkit-user-select:none;font-size:small;margin-left:1em;line-height:1em;display:inline-block;white-space:nowrap;unicode-bidi:-webkit-isolate;"><span class="mw-editsection-bracket" len="1" style="color:rgb(85,85,85);">[ Edit<span class="mw-editsection-bracket" len="1" style="color:rgb(85,85,85);">] === <p style="margin-top:0.5em;line-height:22.3999996185303px;color:rgb(37,37,37);font-family:sans-serif;">The program was broadcast In Flanders in the early years of the commercial channel VTM, from 1989 to 1993.
