Question

Inspired by Arsalan Masood's puzzle

"Unknown Operations", I make my own

modest offering:

Replace each of A, B, C, D, E, F, G, and H

with an operation from the set {×,+,-} to

make 1A2B3C4D5E6F7G8H9 = 127. No other

symbols or operations are allowed.

Evaluation uses standard operator

precedence, i.e., multiplications are

evaluated before any addition or

subtraction is done. Additions and

subtractions are then evaluated from

left to right with equal precedence.

As an example, 1-2+3×4×5+6-7×9 would

evaluate to 2.
