let's play...
if 5 - 9 is 8, and 6 + 3 is 9,
what is 1 - 2 ?

[mOtt_erU]

hi Razz...
is it -1:confused: ?............:)

madali lang yan...everyday routine mo yan. unconsciously.

0?:confused:

[razzmattazz]

0?:confused:



here's the ultimate and final hint..."analog or digital"

[pineapple]

is it positive 1?

kyut :)

[pineapple]

razz.. hinde ko parin sya gets give up na ko...sa thread mo.... mahina na.. ata ako eh??.. sa math... nasobrahan ata sa ... :shutup:

[chris_rock]

last clue po, does the answer have to be a number?

thanks

[blaine]

let's play...
if 5 - 9 is 8, and 6 + 3 is 9,
what is 1 - 2 ?



i think the answer is 11......tama ba?

[chiquilin]

here's the ultimate and final hint..."analog or digital"



hmn...positive and/or negative (plus and/or minus).:p


ps# :confused: <<<clueless

[5 - 9 is 8] ?? how come?

it can never happen in decimal numeral system. any logical proof?

or do we need to translate this numbers into binary or hexadecimal number system?

:confused::confused: :confused:

[benihana]

i think the answer is 11......tama ba?


if blaine's answer is correct then i'll ask the second question:

if 7-3 = 4 and 2+2 = 4

what is 9-5? = 4

now, based on my Q & A, did i get your original Q?:)

[benihana]

if 4-7 = 9 and 2+2 = 4

what is 2 - 4 = ?;) :)

clue: go to Everything Else section under the thread of 5 dont's when you're sleeping.....:D

nabanggit doon...:D :)

absolutely. just splendid, benihana.

WELL DONE. you need no explanation i suppose. SPLENDID!

let me explain...here's how the question goes...

if "nine hours before five o'clock is eight, and three hours after six o'clock is nine, what is two hours before one o'clock?"

my hint.."analog or digital (clock, watch)"

thanks...gonna look for some more. ciao!

[pineapple]

huh buti pa sila ..:confused: :bonk: bakit di ko naisip agad yon???:banghead: :scratch: kasi naman lumilipad talaga ang isip ko eh..:bouncy: :insane:

@razzmatazz, buhayin ko lang itong thread mo ha, may naiisip lang kasi akong number problem.

and here it goes;

If I multiply the word TIMOG by 4, find the digit number of each letter such that the product is reversed in order as GOMIT?
5869

Hint: All the digit numbers are unique to each other and use your deductive reasoning instinct. :)

[razzmattazz]

T=2
I=1
M=9
O=7
G=8

So that when you multiply 21978 by 4 you'll get 87912
The way to solve it...do it the other way around - divide GOMIT by 4.
The ultimate hint: Play first with G, I and T...where IT has to be divisible by 4

et voila!

@razzmattazz

you got it right. good job. :D

This is one of my favorite number problems. This was given in a test by my math teacher in high school. Simple algebra lang ang kailangan, pero medyo nakakalito. :D

The Egg Problem

A man sold half an egg more than half his eggs.
He then sold half an egg more than half the remaining eggs after the first sale.
Again, he sold half an egg more than half the remaining eggs after the second sale and got 7 eggs left. How many eggs did he have at the start? :confused:

@dax, sorry ngayon ko lang nakita itong bagong problem, this is a good one.

Let n=the # of eggs originally
then after first sale = n - (n/2 + 1/2) = (n-1)/2,
after second sale = (n-1)/2 - [(n-1)/4 + 1/2) = (n-3)/4,
after third sale = (n-3)/4 - [(n-3)/8 + 1/2] = (n-7)/8

which means (n-7)/8 = 7 (the remaining eggs):) ,
that makes it
(n - 7) = 7 x 8
n - 7 = 56
n = 63:) (the original number of eggs at the start)

therefore, based on this:

1st sale =32 eggs, 31 left over
2nd sale=16 eggs, 15 left over
3rd sale =8 eggs, 7 left over

thanks for making my day, this is fun!!!:)
