Default Let's do some mathematics...........

Can you prove?

1 1 1 = 6

2 2 2 = 6

3 3 3 = 6

4 4 4 = 6

5 5 5 = 6

6 6 6 = 6

7 7 7 = 6

8 8 8 = 6

9 9 9 = 6

Prove these equations by using all possible mathematical signs ( e.g +,-,*,/ etc) in between the spaces.Will be interesting for those who will see this for first time…………….!

For example


6 + 6 - 6 = 6

Isn’t it easy?

1 1 1 = 6

2+2+2 = 6

3*3-3 = 6

4 4 4 = 6

5/5+5 = 6

6+6-6 = 6

7-7/7 = 6

8 8 8 = 6

9 9 9 = 6

1 1 1 = 6

2 + 2 + 2 = 6

3 * 3 - 3 = 6

√4 +√4 +√4 = 6

5 / 5 + 5 = 6

6 + 6 - 6 = 6

7 - 7 / 7 = 6

8 8 8 = 6

Well, I don’t know how to incorporate subscripts or superscripts with this reply. But the solution to this is: 2 raise to the power three and take cubic root of it. It would seem like:
3√ ((2)^3) + 3√ ((2)^3) + 3√ ((2)^3)
=> 2 + 2 + 2 = 6

9 9 9 = 6
Taking cubic root of nine would give us the figure:

3 3 3 => 3 + 3 – 3 = 6

I’m leaving 1 1 1 = 6 coz I’m not much good at Mathematics. …… I’m only good at making jokes!

Put some more questions…..These are really interesting.

Here comes the solution of first one

i.e 1 1 1 = 6

1 + 1 + 1! = 6

! means FACTORIAL: the factorial of number is obtained by multiplying all the fomers upto one i.e 3! = 3*2*1 = 6

@Astute accountant

9 9 9 = 6
Taking cubic root of nine would give us the figure:

3 3 3 => 3 + 3 – 3 = 6

Oopss.I have just seen this. May be by mistake but it should be like this

3 * 3 - 3 = 6

Yeah, I put an addition sign instead of the multiplication one; just out of "over excitment"... Actually, I was trying to open another link and in the meanwhlie I saw this one, and the answers came to my mind just as a brain wave, so I got over excited....

And BTW what is this?

The factorial of one is one i.e. 1! = 1
=> 1 + 1 + 1 = 3
I'm unable to understand your point. Please clearify...
