Thread: Math Challenge

Fill in the blanks with the appropriate math symbol :
example:
1 1 1 = 6

2 2 2 = 6 would be 2 + 2 + 2 = 6

3 3 3 = 6

4 4 4 = 6

5 5 5 = 6

6 6 6 = 6

7 7 7 = 6

8 8 8 = 6

9 9 9 = 6

Im mathematically challenged any way...but I thought Id try at least..so I did the easy ones...lol...

1 1 1 = 6

2 2 2 = 6 would be 2 + 2 + 2 = 6

3 3 3 = 6 3x3-3=6

4 4 4 = 6

5 5 5 = 6

6 6 6 = 6 6x6/6=6

7 7 7 = 6

8 8 8 = 6

9 9 9 = 6

Sorry bill my key pad isn't big on math symbols how about 4+4-sqroot of 4
and 5 squared+5 divided by 5
7-(7divided by7)
That all your getting from this guy, after all I need to takeoff my ***** to count to 21.
ok one more
squareroot of 9+square root of9+ 9 to the 0 power
this would be a lot easier to write if the key board did exponential values, sin,cosin, and sigma notations it's all childs play for the right child the number of ways to write a number=the number ways to put a photo on a web site LOL

very good pet! smart one!...I am and have never understood numbers...Ive done boolean algabra but cant add 1+1...lol..my instructor couldnt figure me out!...lol..
I think its for me all about interest and keeping my interest...
good job!

Kassi59:

Try using noneuclidian geometry theroms to explain to the cop why the reason you can't walk a strait line is there's no such thing as a strait line.
some times smart people are really dumb.

oooooooh very interesting!..hmm...
much better than saying that Id never had decent equilibrium with both feet on the ground- and you expect me to not wobble with one foot up after a couple beers???!!!!!.....lol

You guys are good. Not sure about the 9 Circus close though. Still a few to be solved.

So far:

1 1 1 = 6

2 2 2 = 6 would be 2 + 2 + 2 = 6

3 3 3 = 6 3 x 3 - 3 = 6

4 4 4 = 6

5 5 5 = 6 5squared + 5 – 5 = 6


6 6 6 = 6 6 x 6 / 6 = 6

7 7 7 = 6 7 - (7 / 7) = 6

8 8 8 = 6

9 9 9 = 6

Hi Bill,
Is this genuine or trick, or am I going to chuck more calculators out the window.

Chris

Genuine math exercise. And there are more than one way of solving. Example two other solutions: 5/5+5=6 or -7/7+7=6

1 1 1 = 6

2 2 2 = 6 2 + 2 + 2 = 6

3 3 3 = 6 (3 x 3) – 3 = 6

4 4 4 = 6 4 + 4 - √4 = 6

5 5 5 = 6 (5 / 5) + 5 = 6

6 6 6 = 6 6 x 6 / 6 = 6

7 7 7 = 6 7 - (7 / 7) = 6

8 8 8 = 6 8 –4√( 8 + 8 ) = 8 – 2 = 6 this would mean 4th root of ( 8 + 8 )

9 9 9 = 6 9 – (9 / √9) = 9 – 3 = 6

Stil trying ti figure out the first one.

5 5 5 = 6 (5 / 5) + 5 = 6

6 6 6 = 6 6 x 6 / 6 = 6

7 7 7 = 6 7 - (7 / 7) = 6

8 8 8 = 6 8 –4√( 8 + 8 ) = 8 – 2 = 6 this would mean 4th root of ( 8 + 8 )

Now darlin' that just showing off!...lol...cant hide brilliance!

Noneuclidian geometry theroms, how could I have missed it?

Sorry but my brain is on vacation and will not be able to solve any problems at this time ...please try again in a millenium...

haha..I want that in a recording....I need it for playback as needed!

Bill2006:

Are you still counting how many ways to put a picture on a website?
Since I have my ***** on I can't count high enough.

Bill2008:

While I was slaving on the computer you made some rank.
congratulations my friend.....General Bill

Tea for everyone! On the house ( this is *****'s house Right?)

Thank you Circus, good eye.
***** paying for the round of teas?

Not exactly.
If no one gets it, I will post the answer tonight or tomorrow morning.

Very good NavalDesign
8 8 8 = 6 the 2 is not valid.
It is actually the cube root: 3√8 +3√8 +3√8 = 6

9 9 9 = 6 is also: 2√9 + 2√9 +2√9 = 6

My brain still on vacation and now it's never planning on coming back after looking at this thread...lol

Sorry...I had to wear the dunce hat a few too many times when it came to math....<shudders as she says that fro mbad memories>...lol

Try factorials.

Yes, 3√8 +3√8 +3√8 is ok. But also, 4√( 8+8 ) = 4√(16) = 2 So 8 –4√( 8 + 8 ) IS 6

Instead, 2√9 = 3 so 2√9 + 2√9 +2√9 = 9 and NOT 6

Beezie what is this foriegn language?....square roots? do you dry them and make tea with them?

You are right, I didn't work the whole formula through and didn't see it 4√( 8+8 ) = 4√(16) = 2

2√9 + 2√9 +2√9 = 9 should be 2√9 + 2√9 - 2√9 = 9 my typo.

1 1 1 = 6

Factorials (1+1+1) ! = 3 ! = 3 x 2 x 1 = 6

I thought root were some thing women dyed brown or blact to keep their blond from showing. LMAO Thanks for the setup General.

2√9 + 2√9 - 2√9 = 3 !

My knowledge doesn't reach the "Factorials (1+1+1) ! = 3 ! = 3 x 2 x 1 = 6"

I might have done something like that sometime 25 years ago, but don't remember it any more.

And since i like going through what i don't know, here is:

BY THE SYMBOL n! ("n factorial") we mean the product of consecutive numbers 1 through n.
n! = 1&#183; 2&#183; 3&#183; &#183; &#183; (n − 2)(n − 1)n = n(n − 1)(n − 2)&#183; &#183; &#183; 3&#183; 2&#183; 1
The order of the factors does not matter, whether backwards or forwards.

0! is defined as 1.

0! = 1

Example. 6! = 1&#183; 2&#183; 3&#183; 4&#183; 5&#183; 6 = 720

Thanks Bill, it's been quite useful.

2√9 X 2√9 - 2√9 = 3 X 3 - 3 = 6

Lol, I can't believe I let that slip by. Thanks
The prefect example of why we should review our work.

I'm thinking bark tea my self...a bit of an after taste but will cure the huge headache from the brain overload I just had ouchie..migraine ....I'm afraid I'm sending the 'doctors' bill to BILL...LMAO...I crack me up on that one...

I thought root were some thing women dyed brown or blact to keep their blond from showing. LMAO Thanks for the setup General.

LOL...blond from showing or premature gray....blame my grand mother but it's supposed to be a sign of wealth in some culture (ok maybe making that up to make me feel better...)...lol

A girls gotta hae soem fun and you know what they say "ez-ez come - e-ez go"...(hmmm...I think I may be kicked of the forum yet...that just sounded more naughty than intended...I have got to stop staying up late at night and watching those 'B' movies)

It's a good thing you don't make as many typos as I do.

LOL...You know I never realized how awful my typing is until I got on this forum...I am the worse one here...even my spelling & grammar have gone kaput ...I think I still have my head on though <checking abov neck carfully to make sure>

well ya know as you can see hes twice as ez....so what do you do with that?
Ya know what 'they' say ez does it....lol

....and the list goes on!....hehe

error on original posting. Sumation Notation not sigma notation, factorials are a sub catogory of sumation notation, proceded by the greek letter ebsolan. sorry It's been 30 years

Next class we will learn how to chew gum and walk at the same time.

Now that I'm excited about...I think I can get my brain back from vacation by then...lol

Bill2006:

With my health issues I can't drink, but I can't multitask without a few belts. Think I'll need to pass on that challenge. It's just too confusing.
Do you walk while chewing or chew while walking. The confusion makes me want to drink. The drinking gives me a reson to be confused. Now look what you've started. LOL

Well it is after 12 in some part of the world.

Bill2006:

Yes Sir General, it's always after 12 somewhere. Now that we're all world wide heres to you ( toasting with Cool-Aid ). Damn this stuff is stronger than I remember.
