100 + 75 - 9 = 164
x 3
= 492 - 2 = 490

badlad

Very good thehost but 100=75-9=166

badlad

that should be 100+75-9=166

Weren't we supposed to be using two 3's (each one once) ? This is why I asked for clarification, thinking perhaps you meant 33 or 32. Wasted about an hour, using 3 as a cube, etc. ☻ja
