 \(\begin{array}{rcll} \frac{8\cdot 12}{6} - 5 - 1 &=& 10\\\\ \frac{8\cdot 12}{1+5} - 6 &=& 10\\\\ \frac{5\cdot 6}{12-8-1} &=& 10\\\\ 8- \frac{12}{6} + 5 - 1&=& 10\\\\ 8+ \frac{(5-1)\cdot 6}{12} &=& 10\\\\ 6\cdot (\frac{12}{8}+1)-5&=& 10\\\\ 12-\frac{5+8-1}{6} &=& 10\\\\ \frac{6\cdot 12}{(5-1)} - 8 &=& 10 \end{array}\)
