Darts (Order of Operation and Expressions)
Professional matches are 501. Each player starts with a score of 501 and takes turns throwing three darts. The score for each turn is calculated and deducted from the player's total. The objective is to be the first player to reduce the score to exactly zero. The only caveat is that the last dart thrown to check out must land in a double.
This year’s world championship final will be between Andrew the Wizard and Alberto El Pistolero. Andrew will throw first
How much does Andrew have left after his first turn? How much does Alberto have left after his first turn?
Andrew missed his first two darts for the treble 20, so he moved to the 19. How much does Andrew have left after his second turn?
Alberto gets the maximum score. How much does Alberto have left after his turn?
The dart in the treble 19 is a little sideways and blocks the space. How much does Andrew have left after his third turn?
Alberto wants to leave himself a score of exactly 100 after this third turn. Where will he aim?
On this turn, Andrew can check out and reach zero. How does Andrew check out?
