Westside Steve Posted December 26, 2013 Author Report Share Posted December 26, 2013 Sorry I posted this twice. I took the other one down. WSS Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MLD Woody Posted December 26, 2013 Report Share Posted December 26, 2013 [(x * 3)+ 3]*3 [3x+3]*3 [x+1]*3*3 [x+1]*9 X has to be between 1-9, so x+1 is anywhere between 2-10 The sum of the digits in any multiple of 9 from 1-10 times equals 9. 9 = 9, 1+8 = 9, 2+7 = 9, etc. Therefore the answer will always come out to 9.
