The numbers $1,$ $2,$ $\dots,$ $10$ are to be entered into the 10 boxes shown below, so that each number is used exactly once: \[P = (\square + \square + \square + \square + \square)(\square + \square + \square + \square + \square).\]What is the maximum value of $P$? What is the minimum value of $P$?

Maximum =  756

Minimum =  600

Step-by-step explanation:

A square is a shape that has the large areas of a defined perimeter out of available rectangles. It implies they want the two parentheses to be as similar in value. as a result, to establish the maximum value of P.

And to establish the minimum value, to have the greatest difference for them. 1 + 2 + 3 ... +10=55, which wasn't even but which can be split as similarly as possible into 27 and 28 which have a product of 756. In this question it can be done in a variety of ways, one of which is:

(1 + 3 + 5 + 8 + 10) ×  (2 + 4 + 6 + 7 + 9) = 756

At the very least, the biggest difference can be created if one term is made of the smallest numbers, while the other full of the highest, or:

(1 + 2 + 3 + 4 + 5) × (6 + 7 + 8 + 9 + 10)=600
