- Each digit must be used exactly once.
- You must use only addition, subtraction, multiplication, and division.
- Digits may not be concatenated (one may not put 1 and 4 together to make 14).
- Parentheses (brackets) are allowed.

You mean well done, SilverKnight.
This is a very interesting problem and requires just the right amount of creativity for the solution.
