Northern Puzzle

SAW this serial number on a Northern Line carriage: 53712.
As usual, each number should be used once, and once only, and must be added, subtracted, multiplied or divided to make a balanced equation.
There is a perfect solution, ie one that uses the numbers in the order they appear.
