try this:
def bears (n):
if n==42:
return True
if n%5==0:
if bears(n-42):
return True
if n%2==0:
if bears(n/2):
return True
if n%3==0 or n%4==0:
one = (n%10)
two = ((n%100)/10)
if one!=0 and two!=0:
if bears(n-(one*two)):
return True
return False
print bears(42)
print bears(250)
print bears(50)
print bears(84)
print bears(41)
