Okay, so our teacher gave us a bunch of numbers like: 1256 and then: = 1
\n" ); document.write( "Perhaps he means this:
\n" ); document.write( "1 _ 2 _ 5 _ 6 = 1
\n" ); document.write( "Put the operators in there, +,-,*,/, or nothing, to make the equation true, like:
\n" ); document.write( "12 - 5 - 6 = 1
\n" ); document.write( ":
\n" ); document.write( "Do the same with:
\n" ); document.write( "3 _ 8 _ 9 _ 5 = 2
\n" ); document.write( "I can't make this one work, if it was
\n" ); document.write( "3 _ 6 _ 9 _ 2 = 2
\n" ); document.write( "we could have:
\n" ); document.write( "3 + 6 - 9 + 2 = 2
\n" ); document.write( ":
\n" ); document.write( "Anyway see if you can work out something like that\r
\n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( " \n" ); document.write( "
