I can read your mind also....

1. Think of a number with 2 digits
2. Subtract from this number its 2 digits
3. Concentrate on this number and dont click anywhere....




Conclusion: The final number is a multiple of 9!!!!

Yar, it's just some complicated formula. Some people explained how it works exactly in a thread like this before.

Here is another problem for those of you who can answer the last problem:

A man has some number of dollar bills and needs to divide them into seperate but equal groups (to be fair to each) so that he can distribute them to many charities. He tries 2 charities, but finds he has 1 dollar bill left over. Then he tries 3 charities, but has 2 dollar bills left over ...and so on, until he gets to groups of 17, and the dollar bills fit perfectly. How many dollar bills are there?

Do you actually want the mathematical formula?

Okay, for those of you having trouble understanding this, here is an explanation:

The final answer is always going to be a multiple of nine. For example,
10-1-0=9/9=1
20-2-0=18/9=2
30-3-0=27/9=3
40-4-0=36/9=4

or you can choose any random number like,
47-4-7=36/9=4
99-9-9=81/9=9

As you can see, all of these are evenly divisible by 9, so all the multiples of nine have the same symbols.
X=starting #
y=first digit
n=second digit
t=multiple of 9

X-y-n=t
STARTING#-first digit-second digit=resulting multiple of 9[/i]


In conclusion:The final number will always be a multiple of 9

whats with this nine stuff???? all they did was
# - first digit - last digit = symbol rite well (i like being complicated so here goes) they did each number from 99 - 1 (i sware they dumbasses tho for you cant have 99 as a number for ud have to subtract it so thats a waste of space) but they did all of those and found the answer bam put a symbol their and boom their is your answer!

From the word "groups", you can not have just one.

Oh yeah, sorry

119$ then


y: $$$
X: multiply by


y=17x
z=(y-1)/2
a=(y-2)/3

now: a+z=y-3x

thus: (y-2)/3 + (y-1)/2 - y =-3x
(-y-7)/6 = -18x/6
7=x

so: 7*17=119
