♪♫ Let's Get Physical, Physical ♪♫

 It's Mental Monday! Put on your thinking caps.


Look at the following:

1 + 23 - 4 + 5 - 6 + 78 + 9 = 106

Notice that the digits 1 through 9 are used in order to arrive at 106. Using 1 through 9 in order, and using only addition or subtraction, create equations that equal 100.

Come on, give me at least 2 equations! Post your answers in the comments section.

This is very nifty. It took me much longer to figure it out, but after about 30 minutes I came up with:
123-45-67+89= 100
