Jed245 | Friday, November 21, 2003 - 02:42 pm     Weird... I will figgure this out. :o) |
Kimmo | Friday, November 21, 2003 - 03:09 pm     Maybe we should say the number we picked? What if it is always the same number for some reason? |
Meanserene | Friday, November 21, 2003 - 03:24 pm     By jove, I think I've got it. No matter what digits are used, if you subtract one number from another that contains the same digits but in a different order, the digits in the answer will always add up to 9. 4321-1234=3087. 3+0=3. 3+8=11 and 11+7=18. 1+8=9. Ok. So your answer is 3087, you can't circle the 0, but you circle the 3. Remaining digits 8+7=15, 1+5=6. 9-6=3. So figure ya circled the 8. 3+0=3+7=10. 1+0=1. 9-1=8. Maybe someone can explain it simpler. I know this is probably as clear as mud. It's the best I can do. |
Cinder | Friday, November 21, 2003 - 04:05 pm     Sounds right to me. After substracting my number was 342- which 3 + 4+2= 9. The first time I did it I accidentally put in the original number (minus one digit) and it was wrong. But the number I enter was 53, which equals 8. So he said my number was 1. |
Jan | Friday, November 21, 2003 - 04:40 pm     Well Done MeanSerene!!! Now I can answer the email that asked me to figure it out..but I will give you due credit! I am duly impressed  I KNEW someone here could figure this out! |
