can anyone get 733 using the numbers 100, 25, 4, 10, 9 and 7.

You can use +,-,x and division. I can only get one either way!

(100 +10 + 9) x 7 = 833

25 x 4 =100

833-100 = 733

Actually there are loads of answers

(100 + 10 - 4) * 7 - 9 = 733
(10 * 9 + 4) * 7 + 100 - 25 = 733
(10 * 9 + 25 + 4) * 7 - 100 = 733
(25 - 9) * 10 * 4 + 100 - 7 = 733
(25 * 4 + 10 + 9) * 7 - 100 = 733
100 * 4 + (25 + 9) * 10 - 7 = 733

I'm sure that every so often they let one of these slip through just to prove that they're not using this: http://www.crosswordtools.com/numbers-game/
