Ive tried the following

33-11-7 which equals 15
17-3-7 which equals 7 (Need to get to 8)25-14-7 = 4

Could this be a typo on the paper?

Why would mentioning the name of this paper be classed as advertising, when I have seen the names of several different papers have been mentioned on recent threads? (One even in the thread name.)

Regrettably there have been instances in the past of people attempting to promote their own, sub-standard, papers on the forum, and certain names have been blocked as a result.

Thank you for letting me know - I think I can now take a guess at which lot they are.

(But then again even Letts have produced substandard papers)
