    actually you are probably right, my mistake, if I get a chance I will follow the show's guidelines and generate a larger number

    Erm, 15 isn't a valid source number. But ignoring that:

    228 = (100 - 15 - 8 - 1) * 3, or

    If you take the 15 as a '1':

    228 = (5 - 1 - 1 ) * (100 - (8 * 3))

    If you take the 15 as a '5':

    228 = 3 * (100 + 1 - 5*5)
