not getting solution

Question about the task

Only 20 will do

Java Syntax, Level 1, Lesson 4

Under discussion

Iam not getting the solution.

In the main method, place plus and minus signs correctly so that the variable result is equal to 20.
Signs must be placed only in the line where the variable result is declared.
Do not change the order of the variables in this line.
Each variable must be preceded by either a plus or minus sign.

Requirements:

Values of variables: Do not change a, b, c, or d.
Each of the variables (a, b, c, and d) in the line where the variable result is declared must be preceded by either a plus or minus sign.
The program should display the number 20 on the screen.
The plus and minus signs must be placed correctly.

package com.codegym.task.task01.task0137; /* Only 20 will do */ public class Solution { public static int a = 1; public static int b = 3; public static int c = 9; public static int d = 27; public static void main(String[] args) { int result = + a - b + c - d; System.out.println("result"); } }

hey buddy start with largest number (i.e) d and then add or subtract others to get 20 then you will get the correct sign's i.e e.g : 27 + 3 - 9 - 1 d: + sign(27) b: + sign(3) c: - sign(9) a: - sign(1) just change the signs in this (int result = + a - b + c - d;) expression don't change the order or anything just sign's.
