Subtraction
An ic0mu engineer counts the remaining rockets in the main depot. By subtracting the missing crates from the total stock, they track the thief's escape path.
Solve each problem to learn its letter. Then write that letter in every box that shows the same number, and read the secret clue.
Addition
We scan the server logs to add up the extra coins generated by the defense droppers. The sum reveals the exact IP address used by the Big Papi spy.
Solve each problem to learn its letter. Then write that letter in every box that shows the same number, and read the secret clue.
Multiplication facts (1-12)
The radar screen displays rows of attacking clan drones. Multiplying the columns of ships helps us calculate the exact sector where the suspect is hiding.

Fractions of a number
The command center decodes a corrupted video feed. Only a fraction of the total frames are clear enough to reveal a clue about the thief's avatar style.
Solve each problem to learn its letter. Then write that letter in every box that shows the same number, and read the secret clue.
Fractions of a number — the last clue
We check the power levels of the backup generators. Only a small fraction of the grid is still offline, pointing us directly to the intruder's hidden weakness.
First solve each problem. Then find each answer in the list below and cross that sentence out. One sentence will be left — that's exactly what the villain did!
