Hint
Start on any square, and see how far you can get.

Answer
Start from the 1U that is on the 3^rd row down and the 7^th column across.

Hint
Try working backwards.

Answer
15.

Reasoning
One quarter of 360 is 90.

One third of 90 is 30.

One half of 30 is 15.

Answer
Start from the 2R on the sixth row down and the second column across.

Workings

Hint
Start by labelling the number as ABCDE.

Answer
24,976.

Reasoning
We can start by labelling the digits as ABCDE.

We know that:

(i)  B = 2 x A

and:

     E = A + B

And using (i) we get:

     E = A + (2 x A)
(ii) E = 3 x A

If A = 1, this isn't allowed (as there are no 1's in the puzzle).

If A = 2, then B = 4, and E = 6.

If A = 3, then B = 6, and E = 9, but this isn't allowed (as C has to be the largest digit).

So, A = 2, B = 4, E = 6, and we now have to find C and D.

We also know that:

D = (A + B + C + D + E) ÷ 4

And using (i) and (ii) we get:

D = [A + (2 x A) + C + D + (3 x A)] ÷ 4

so:

3 x D = (6 x A) + C

so:

(iii) D = [(6 x A) + C] ÷ 3

C can only be 7, 8 or 9 (as it's the largest digit, and we've already found 6) and (iii) tells us that it must be a multiple of 3, which means that C = 9. Leaving D = 7.

So the final number is: 24976.

Double-Checking
The answer is 24976.

The fourth digit is a quarter of the total of all of the digits.
   A + B + C + D + E = 2 + 4 + 9 + 7 + 6 = 28, and 28 ÷ 4 = 7.

The second digit is twice the first digit.
   4 = 2 x 2.

The third digit is the largest.
   9 is the largest digit.

The last digit is the sum of the first two digits.
   6 = 2 + 4.
