You can put this solution on YOUR website!
They want you to create the numbers 0 through 9 only using four 4's and four arithmetic operations\r
\n" ); document.write( "
\n" ); document.write( "
\n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "So in the example, they created 0 using 4 fours and subtraction.\r
\n" ); document.write( "
\n" ); document.write( "
\n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "So another example would be creating 7:\r
\n" ); document.write( "
\n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "7 = 4+4-4/4
\n" ); document.write( " \n" ); document.write( "

\n" );
