A bit of magic fun!!!!

Postby Anjorno » Jun 27th, '13, 19:07



think of a three digit number
reverse it add this to the first number
add your age times by 3
plus 10
subtract your year of birth from the number of the month you were born for example January would be 1
add this to the number your at
times by two
divide by 4
then 3
round it to the nearest number in a pack of cards 1 to 52
imagine a pack of cards in chsd order each suit going in ace to king order
link your number to a card
take that cards value and link it to a letter in the alphabet
ace being 1 and 1 equalling A
think of a animal starting with that letter
take its second letter and think of a country
take that's second letter and think of a name
take the name's last letter and think of a town in Iraq starting with it
take the town's name second from last letter
look in a dictionary and select a word you've never heard of starting with the letter
count the number of letters in the word add it to 23
subtract 3
subtract your number then
times the number 10 and take it from the main number
remember this number
and think of a word


Your number is 0 and I was thinking of a word from the start

the difference of any 2 transposed numbers is always divisible by 9.
ie. any 2 digit number (strictly doesn't need to be 2 but lets not OVER complicate) reversed and taken away from the original is a multiple of 9.
ie: number ab - ba

Here's the maths.
Number ab can be considered a lots of 10 and b lots of 1 and written as 10a+b
Therefor the reverse ba would be 10b+a

10a+b-(10b+a)
10a+b-10b-a
9a-9b
9(a-b)

multiple of nine


Similarly to work UP to a multiple of 9 and not make it SO blindly obvious just times by 3 twice!

Then you can ask if someone has a 2 or 3 digit number just add the numbers togther, then again if it's still 2 digits
Then you're left with 9

Then minus 5
