Place one of the four basic arithmetic operations (+, - , x, /) in each box to make a correct equation. Symbols may be repeated; you do not have to use all four. All operations are performed from left to right, ignoring mathematical order of operations. The result at each step must be a positive whole number. What is the equation?
5 - 3 + 8 * 4 / 2 = 20
