  • not that amazing, he always use the numbers from the top so he can get 75, 25 and 50

    Then he uses 3y-2 = (y*75-50)/25

    When he's sat there he does 952 + 2 = 954

    954/3 = 318

    Now he knows he can make 952 from 318, 75, 50 and 25 with the equation (y*75-50)/25

    So he then figures out how to make 318 with the remaining 3, 6 and 100

    (100+6)*3=318

    (318*75-50)/25 = 3*318 - 2

  • @XyXo whoops!

  • sheldon!

  • er... lol? he makes stephen hawking look like a dummy. no offence

  • @civilcalc I'm sorry but, (75+25) x 100 = 10.000

  • @civilcalc You may want to check that...........

  • @civilcalc Not quite as correct. You are out by a factor of ten. (75+25) times 100 = 10000.

  • @civilcalc (75+25) x 100 is 10.000, but is just a zero, no real value, so no worries :D

  • I did

    (75+25) x 100 = 1000

    - 50

    + (6/3)

    Not as impressive, but just as correct.

  • He looks like SheldonCooper!
