Its quite simple... if you take a 2 digit number and add those 2 digits together it will only give you a number in a certain series.
The page changes the symbol of each of those numbers to the same symbol after every trial.

yeah I caught on after I picked the same number 5 times in a row lol.

In other words by doing the math they suggested you can only end up with certain numbers and these numbers all have the same symbol.

81, 72, 63, 60, 56, 54, 45, 40, 37, 36, 27, 18, 9, 7, 0
You should always get one of those numbers and they will all have the same symbol.

I'm going to have to disagree (with 60, 56, 40, 97, 27, 7, 0), unless you can show me a contradictory example. Only because I think it has to be a multiple of nine *see below* and that you have to choose a two digit number.

If you choos a two digit number (let's call it "AB", where A&B are single digits), then it is equivalent to:

10*A + B

Now we add the digits together:

(A + B)

And subtract it from the number chosen:

10*A + B - (A + B)

Doing the algebra and resulting in:

9*A

And so it must be the multiples of 9*(1 to 9)

uhm. it has yet to guess mine right?

Then your bad at math

[Ian]

This is simple. take like 3 two digit numbers in your head, and do it for all of them at once. they will all be the same symbol.

Ive seen this like a year ago. It does a pretty good job of guessing what symbol to do. [img]tongue.gif[/img]

Right? [img]graemlins/wavey.gif[/img] </font>[/QUOTE]The directions as i understood them were to pick a 2 didget numer then add those 2 numbers together and subtract it from your original number.

AB is the 2 diget number

A+B=C (adding teh 2 digets togther)

AB-C can only equal the following 81, 72, 63, 54, 45, 36, 27, 18, 9, 0 (sorry i did not fully work it out before)
