I use times tables as a distraction technique at the dentist, going up to 20 squared.<br /><br />Sadly, I have a favourite times table, the 17x. <br /><br />Also as a child, I loved the mathematical puzzles by Martin Gardner in Scientific American magazine, though they were often far too hard for me.Zhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00822383355869390919noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-13628961.post-66634960741664837792010-07-15T11:38:33.647+05:302010-07-15T11:38:33.647+05:30I am wondering if you know that number "9&quo...I am wondering if you know that number "9" is a magical number. Muliply 9 times any number and then add the digits of the sum and you will get "9". Try it!<br />For example, 9x9 is 81. Add the digits "8" and "1" and what do you get? "9"<br />9x7= 63. 6+3= 9.<br />9x8=72. 7+2= 9.<br />You get the idea. I first ran across this in a bhagavad-gita published by the Ramakrishna Society. Let me know if you can still get "9" with more complex numbers. I am not very advanced in math and science, but I found this very interesting.<br />Also, there is something called the 'magic square' which I don't understand too well.
