Using the numbers [20, 12, 7, 35], create an equation that equals 44. You can use basic arithmetic operations (+, -, *, /) and exponents (raise a number to a power) with each number only being used once. Show your work in <think> </think> tags, and then return the final equation and answer in <answer> </answer> tags. For example, the valid solution could be <answer> (12^2 + 7) / 20 = 44 </answer>.<|im_end|>
