I love math tricks and this one really works and will only take you about ten seconds!!!
Amazing it really works to reveal my all-time favorite movie.
I'm pretty good at math, so I did it in my head, then on paper, and finally on a calculator just to confirm my numerical capabilities.
Each time I got the same answer, and sure enough it IS my very favorite movie EVER!
DO NOT cheat. DO YOUR math, THEN compare the results to the list of movies at the bottom

Great movie #9 I think everyone will like that movie.
ReplyDeleteI really didn't care for Mrs Doubtfire,but math does not lie.
ReplyDelete3(3x + 3) reduces to:
ReplyDelete9x + 9 which also can be shown as:
9(x+1)
anyone who has done the "9 trick" in school knows that 9 times any number is equal to that number minus 1, plus whatever value that you add to get to 9.
Love it!
ReplyDelete1x 3 =3 3+3=6 6x3=18 1+8=19
ReplyDeleteam I missing something
Yes - the ability to add. I don't think 1 plus 8 equals 19
ReplyDeleteCommon core math ruins jokes.
ReplyDeleteI'm am laughing so very hard at 4:20am's response...yup the ability to add sure is gone...LOL
