For some reason people learn (25×75+x)×50/100 but not the others as well.

Yes, I was quite pleased with (50*75+2)*25/100 = 938, but they are really all just 25*50*75/100 +/- a fraction of x.

R4 numbers (100, 75, 50, 25, 9, 2 -> 939) was do-able without any 4 large tricks. Straight-forward once you spot the method.
