    Interestingly, all values within a difference of 10 were multiples of 3.

    If it’s limited to basic arithmetic (±*/) and no parenthesis, would there be any answer possible that’s not a multiple of 3? My first thought is telling me that common order of operations would make any equation using the numbers in the OP and the restrictions laid out would always amount to a multiple of 3.
