not really pal the only thing i could think of is like this
(x + *) (x-*)
if you see a question like that it means you need to find two numbers
which times to make the biggest number and Takeaway to get the lowest number
only way i think ?

Well don't you start by multiplying the numerator and the denominator by the reciprocal of the denominator?
