one: any time you want to end up with a repeating string of numbers (example: 0.

123123123123) just take the number you want to repeat and divide it by a multiple of 9 with the same number of digits. (for this example 0.123123123 = 123/999) other examples 0.121212 = 12/99 0.3333333 - 3/9 0.0004000400040004= 0004/9999 etc. trick two. done by a famous mathmatician (I forget who) to add all of the consecutive numbers in a set example: list 1 to 10, 1,2,3,4,5,6,7,8,9,10 are consecutive put an inverted list next to it 10,9,8,7,6,5,4,3,2,1 add each pair together =11,11,11,11,11,11,11,11,11,11 =10*11=110. Then divide the number by 2. 110/2=55 you can use this in a bar to win drinks, just tell them you can add every number from 1 to 1000 faster than they can, etc. . :-) all even numbers from 1 to 100. 2,4,6,,8,....100 (50 numbers, since only the even ones) 100, 98, ..... 2 =102+102+..... 102=102*50=5100 5100/2=2550

If there are 1,2's in 2's divide, how many ones are in the whole problem. O ones. If there are 108 dead people in a cementry and the lawn keeper was mowing, how many people were watching him/? none, they are all dead. Answered by ruth4526 - Sat Feb 3 23:19:53 2007

Not sure if this is what you are looking for but: Eleven plus two is an anagram of twelve plus one. Answered by JohnnyOneLung - Tue Oct 9 04:18:37 2007

Try this. I'll explain it at the end. 1) Pick a # between 2 and 9 2) Multiply it by 9 3) Add the two digits in this # together (ex. if your answer to step #2 is 45, add 4+5 4) Subtract 5 5) Find the corresponding letter of the alphabet (ex. 1=A 2=B...26=Z) 6)Think of a State that starts with that letter 7) Think of the 2nd letter in the name of that state 8)Think of an animal that starts with that letter 9) What color is this animal ?

26/65. To reduce, cancel the 6s and get 2/5. That's the correct answer. Try another one. 16/64. Cancel the 6s to get 1/4. That's the correct answer. To compute 142857 times 3, you take the 1 from the beginning and put it on the end. 428571. 144 is the only number that is both square and a Fibonacci number, and further, it is F12, the square of its own subscript. For all numbers a and b, a* b = 0. The product of any two numbers is zero. Prove by induction on b. If b = 0, then a*0 = 0 is true for all a. Now suppose a*b=0 for all a and all b < n. Then a*n = a*(1+(n-1)) = a*1 + a*(n-1) = 0+0 = 0, from the induction hypothesis. This proves that a*b = 0 for all a and b. However, 2*2 = 4, so what's the error in this proof?
