Num1 = 400;  
Num2 = Math.floor(Math.random()\*(400-200)+200;  
Num3 = Num1-Num2;  
trace(Num1);  
trace(Num2);  
trace(Num3);

Create a new movie and put those actions in Frame one. Even though this shows the numbers in the output window is this what you were looking for? I am not sure I fully understood.
