This one was difficult, took me ages (probably more a reflection on me)

50 + 5 - 1 = 54

* 10 = 540

75/25 = 3

540 + 3 = 543

Nice one! I kept getting either 542 or 544.

483

Spent ages looking for a complex solution then realised it was relatively straightforward (compared to some on this thread!):

100 - 7 + 5 = 98
98 x 5 = 490
490 - 7 = 483
