The Beauty of Maths/b]
1 x 8 + 1 = 9
12 x 8 + 2 = 98
123 x 8 + 3 = 987
1234 x 8 + 4 = 9876
12345 x 8 + 5 = 98765
123456 x 8 + 6 = 987654
1234567 x 8 + 7 = 9876543
12345678 x 8 + 8 = 98765432
123456789 x 8 + 9 = 987654321

1 x 9 + 2 = 11
12 x 9 + 3 = 111
123 x 9 + 4 = 1111
1234 x 9 + 5 = 11111
12345 x 9 + 6 = 111111
123456 x 9 + 7 = 1111111
1234567 x 9 + 8 = 11111111
12345678 x 9 + 9 = 111111111
123456789 x 9 +10= 1111111111

9 x 9 + 7 = 88
98 x 9 + 6 = 888
987 x 9 + 5 = 8888
9876 x 9 + 4 = 88888
98765 x 9 + 3 = 888888
987654 x 9 + 2 = 8888888
9876543 x 9 + 1 = 88888888
98765432 x 9 + 0 = 888888888

Brilliant, isn't it?

And look at this symmetry:

1 x 1 = 1
11 x 11 = 121
111 x 111 = 12321
1111 x 1111 = 1234321
11111 x 11111 = 123454321
111111 x 111111 = 12345654321
1111111 x 1111111 = 1234567654321
11111111 x 11111111 = 123456787654321
111111111 x 111111111=12345678987654321

Now, take a look at this...

101%

>From a strictly mathematical viewpoint:

What Equals 100%? What does it mean to give MORE than 100%?

Ever wonder about those people who say they are giving more than 100%?

We have all been in situations where someone wants you to GIVE OVER
100%.

How about ACHIEVING 101%?

What equals 100% in life?

Here's a little mathematical formula that might help answer these
questions:

If:

A B C D E F G H I J K L M N O P Q R S T U V W X Y Z

Is represented as:

1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 10 11 12 13 14 15 16 17 18 19 20 21 22 23 24 25 26.

If:
H-A-R-D-W-O-R- K

8+1+18+4+23+15+18+11 = 98%

And:

K-N-O-W-L-E-D-G-E

11+14+15+23+12+5+4+7+5 = 96%

But:

A-T-T-I-T-U-D-E

1+20+20+9+20+21+4+5 = 100%

THEN, look how far the love of God will take you:

L-O-V-E-O-F-G-O-D

12+15+22+5+15+6+7+15+4 = 101%

Therefore, one can conclude with mathematical certainty that:

While Hard Work and Knowledge will get you close, and Attitude will
get you there, It's the Love of God that will put you over the top!

Hey Swaggy.
Why not just cool down.
We are not MI6 agents or somethings.
You don't have too post every day!! Heine does That..

I'd like to do that Holger, but when someone is shooting at me, I reserve the right to shoot back.

Hey Swag..
Post jokes in the joke section in the marine section...(Maybe someone should move it too GD or NAAFI )..

And don't mind Harry!
He's just some fathers son, as you...

Posted: **Wed 07 Nov, 2007 9:45 am**

Yeah OK hole. Couldn't find it.
Good idea that the joke section is given a place of it's own anyway.
Wouldn't there be some Paras here that wouldn't click on the RM section on principal? Then they don't see The Swagman's jokes at all.

I don't mind our Harry. I already burried the hatchet with him when I told him I was impressed with him.
Trouble is he's still walking round with the hatchet looking for me.

Nine the magic number.

Good one Owdun.
That reminds me of the rule of 72.

Maybe some guys here don't know this and would like to store it away for future use.
When investing your money and you want to know how many years it will take to double any amount at a given rate of interest, divide that interest rate into 72.

Therefore 6% interest will take 12 years.

Also if your a plank like me and find 9 times table hard try this way (only goes up to 10x9)
Hold up your fingers and from left to right they are number 1-10 (1 being your left thumb, 10 being your right), now 7x9 is...(put down your 7th finger, and all the fingers and thumb on the left are 10s and all of them on the right and 1s) so 7x9=63.

Do you think Colonel Sanders would describe that as "Finger lickin' good" mate?

Colonel Sanders thinks your an idiot.

Owdun.
That's the first post from you that i actually can understand...

Mathematics is awesome.
Sometimes it's actually kind of scary, i think...
