Largest number comes from multiplying all of the numbers together.
9%2A8%2A7%2A6%2A5=15120
For the lowest (non-negative) number divide the smallest number by the product of the remaining numbers.
5%2F%286%2A7%2A8%2A9%29=0.00165
Else if negative numbers are considered, subtract the smallest and largest numbers and multiply by the product of the remaining numbers,
%285-9%29%2A6%2A7%2A8=-1344
