what i can work out using the clue (or formular) is

1 = h + ibw
2 = n + ggsl
7 = mqu - tggl
5 = y - u r drnk
6 = wd chc - lck r
3 = ct + fl v
4 = grt - emn

which turns to this

1 = (h) + (ibw) HIBW
2 = (n) + (ggsl) NGSL
3 = (ct) + (Fl V) CT
4 = (Gt) - (emn) GT
5 = (y) - (u r Drnk) Y
6 = (Wd) - (lk r) WD
7 = (Mqu) - (t Ggl) MQU

Don't have a solution but a few suggestions for different ways to look for the answer.

You are assuming the numbers just provide the final order. What if they are trying to tell you to take (or remove) the (every) nth letter or word from the clue or the answer?

Perhaps the numbers do refer to the order and you are supposed to rearrange the whole thing into a single line and then evaluate it?

When you try the above you might consider that you are assuming that (Rainbow Negg - Orange Negg) = ((Rainbow Negg) - (Orange Negg)) what if it is: (Rainbow (Negg - Orange) Negg) or even (Rainbow (Negg - (Orange Negg))?
