math challenge, Chaldean method style.

remember, all digits, in this problem, are 0-9, have fun,

<b>Y + H) * k =<b>

reduce the number to a single digit after solving it,

example> say the answer is 80 > 8+0= 8, second example, 555= 5+5= 10 1+0 = 1> 1 +5 = 6> there you go enjoy, folks, and good luck happy mathing, remember no cheating guys, if find the answer pm me.

good luck gang,

Hmmm what's the question again?

Post by **computathug** » 23 Sep 2007, 17:39

is the answer 3. if it is il post the math. its not the answer thats important here its the working out.

I hope this is not your geometry problem solving homework you are not trying to get us to solve.

this is an example of what i think he is after us doing,and im working so havent time to google for any other examples.

101 would then become 1+0=1

these are the first 2 digits so then from 101 we do the same with the secon and third digits which is
0+1=1
the answer would then be 11 but as you need to have only a single whole number we then cancel down again so it would be
11=1+1 =2

so 101 would cancel down to 2 eventually

hope this explains a bit.

Chaldean method is that the number 9 is not used in the calculations, weired in a way,

anyway back to the topic,

here is the answer, guys,

Code: Select all

Y + H =>  in the     Chaldean method numbers,   Y=1  H=5  K=2  
so the answer is, >  Y + H  * K =     Y + H = 6>  6 * K = 12> 1 + 2 = 3 
3 is the answer you are correct, computerthug, 10++ for you,
