Solution

We can solve this puzzle simply by trying in various combinations of operators with the numbers. Some of the combinations that we can are given below:-

98 - 76 + 54 + 3 + 21 = 100

9 - 8 + 76 + 54 - 32 + 1 = 100

98 + 7 - 6 + 5 - 4 + 3 - 2 - 1 = 100

98 + 7 - 6 + 5 - 4 - 3 + 2 + 1 = 100

98 - 7 + 6 + 5 - 4 + 3 - 2 + 1 = 100

98 - 7 + 6 - 5 + 4 + 3 + 2 - 1 = 100

98 + 7 - 6 - 5 + 4 + 3 - 2 + 1 = 100

98 - 7 - 6 + 5 + 4 + 3 + 2 + 1 = 100
9 + 8 + 76 + 5 + 4 - 3 + 2 - 1 = 100

9 + 8 + 76 + 5 - 4 + 3 + 2 + 1 = 100

98 + 7 + 6 - 5 - 4 - 3 + 2 - 1 = 100

98 - 7 - 6 - 5 - 4 + 3 + 21 = 100

9 - 8 + 76 - 5 + 4 + 3 + 21 = 100

98 - 7 + 6 + 5 + 4 - 3 - 2 - 1 = 100

9 - 8 + 7 + 65 - 4 + 32 - 1 = 100


Also the combination which requires the least number of operators is

98 - 76 + 54 + 3 + 21 = 100
