42 = 2 × 3 × 7

42 = 12 × 3 + 4 + 5 + 6 + 7 + 8 + 9

42 = 98 + 7 + 6 − 5 − 43 − 21

42 = 0^0 + 1^9 + 2^6 + 3^7 − 4^8 + 5^3 + 6^1 + 7^2 + 8^4 + 9^5

42 = (1 + 1) × (11 + 11 − 1)
= 2 × 22 − 2
= 3 × 3 + 33
= 44 − (4 + 4)/4
= 5 + 5 + ((5 + 5)/5)5
= 6 × 6 + 6
= 7 × 7 − 7
= 8 × 8 − (88 + 88)/8
= 9 + 9 × 99/(9 + 9 + 9)

\( {\displaystyle 42=(-80\ 538\ 738\ 812\ 075\ 974)^{3}+80\ 435\ 758\ 145\ 817\ 515^{3}+12\ 602\ 123\ 297\ 335\ 631^{3} } \)
