No, you can't switch the order of the numbers.

Good job though, Korbyn, at making a true equation with the order changed. I wonder if there are more possible solutions by changing the order? What if you moved the 8, too?

Raghav shared another solution: (3+1) / (3/6) = 4 / (1/2) = 8. Impressive!

Great job, Korbyn! That was the only other solution I had found without rearranging the numbers. It takes quite a bit of trial and error to find these!
