Got the solution ;) it's: (5+3)*(4-(1/2)) = 28 Thanx 4 cooperation :laugh:

Here's an integer only version: (5+4-2)*(1+3) :) --modified a few minutes after posting I just realized I used 2 + and no /. No wonder it was all integer. Silly me :sigh:

Still a good shot :-D I was told that there is another solution without the brackets! I'm still trying

2*3*4 + 5 - 1 (1*2*5 - 3) * 4
Does not involve all the operators.

Why not to create a program that finds the answer?
