okay, here are my answers..

using 1 = 111-11 x 1
using 3 = 33 x 3 + (3/3)^3 (^3 means to the third power or cube)
using 5 = 55-5 + 55 - 5 or (5 x 5) + [5 - (5/5)^5] (^5 means to the fifth power)
using 9 = 99/9 X 9 + 9/9 or 99/99 + 99


and i can use 1-9 using the same formula..
(111-11)/1 = 100/1 = 100
(222-22)/2 = 200/2 = 100
(333-33)/3 = 300/3 = 100
(444-44)/4 = 400/4 = 100
(555-55)/5 = 500/5 = 100
(666-66)/6 = 600/6 = 100
(777-77)/7 = 700/7 = 100
(888-88)/8 = 800/8 = 100
(999-99)/9 = 900/9 = 100
