\n" ); document.write( "This problem is DIFFERENT than the one in the link referenced by tutor @ikleyn. In this problem, the number 4 is not in the given set.

\n" ); document.write( "I also suspect that, although not stated specifically, any number from the set can be used only once.

\n" ); document.write( "So the response from the other tutor is not valid, for at least one and maybe two reasons.

\n" ); document.write( "So....

\n" ); document.write( "30 = 21+8+1
\n" ); document.write( "31 = 21+8+2
\n" ); document.write( "32 = 21+8+3
\n" ); document.write( "33 NO single number; and NO sum of either 2 or 3 different numbers
\n" ); document.write( "34 = 34
\n" ); document.write( "35 = 34+1
\n" ); document.write( "36 = 34+2
\n" ); document.write( "37 = 34+3
\n" ); document.write( "38 = 34+3+1
\n" ); document.write( "39 = 34+3+2
\n" ); document.write( "40 = 34+5+1
\n" ); document.write( "41 = 34+5+2
\n" ); document.write( "42 = 34+5+3
\n" ); document.write( "43 = 34+8+1
\n" ); document.write( "44 = 34+8+2
\n" ); document.write( "45 = 34+8+3
\n" ); document.write( "46 NO single number; and NO sum of either 2 or 3 different numbers
\n" ); document.write( "47 = 34+13
\n" ); document.write( "48 = 34+13+1
\n" ); document.write( "49 = 34+13+2
\n" ); document.write( "50 = 34+13+3

\n" ); document.write( "ANSWER: 33 and 46
