I'm sure this has been posted in different versions, but this just blows my mind. :confused:

I guess it's a play on numbers?

The Magic Gopher (http://www.learnenglish.org.uk/games/magic-gopher-central.swf)....will read your mind.

Just make sure you add correctly and remember the symbol.

I hate you Magic Gopher!!!:eek:

ok. please explain how this works. i tried it 5 times with different combinations and the formula was the same. it worked each time:confused:

maybe that's why plumber couldn't electrocute the gopher. he outsmarted him:D

Rick,even though moles and gophers are of the same family.Moles don't cheat.

I tried and couldn't figure it out.Because the gopher cheated:pI cheated and got the formula:p

German translation for "no"

Math can be so far advanced from me;)

[PLUMBER RICK]

now i'm confused:confused:

i kept running the same cobination of #'s and it was wrong:confused:

who's the math wizzard here:confused:

My wife is director for a Mathmatical Society. I'll send it to her and let the professors explain how this works.

I feel so emasculated :eek:

I can't beat a cartoon gopher in math :mad:

DON'T READ THIS POST IF YOU WANT TO FIGURE IT OUT ON YOUR OWN



All two digit combinations will end up with one of a few answers when following the directions EX; 81 72 63 54 45 36 27 18 9. These #'s (I maybe off but you get the point) will always have the same symbol applied to them but the sneaky gopher changes the symbol each time.

So true....

I imagined 23..my final nummber was 18..with the little plane looking symbol...


How does it do it?

i am not telling MAH-HAHAHAHA

Say the first digit (the 10's digit) is X and the second digit is Y.
so the number is 10 times X + Y (= 10X + Y).
so if you choose 43, X=4, Y=3. 10 times 4 plus 3 is 43.

Now,

Step 1. Add them together:

X + Y
Step 2. Subtract the your number from step 1.

(10X+Y) - (X + Y)
= 10X + Y - X - Y
= 9X

As Gene pointed out, all multiples of 9 have the same symbol (but that symbol changes every game).

Don't mess up my theories with facts...It's MAGIC!!!:D
