Lets says you have digits from 1 to 9, a plus sign and two minus signs. How do you get 100 from these? Its quiet easy for those who are good with figures...

mmm.... OK, lets do away with the plus sign then as it will confuse some. We have digits from 1 to 9, i.e. 1,2,3,4,5,6,7,8 and 9 and two minus signs (- -) you need to make use all of these to get 100. Hope this is clear enough.
