  • This is why I love your videos, you make facts that I'd usually find boring real interesting and make me wanna watch more =D

    Peace

  • @MaffiasAngelO88 Thank you :)

  • I found this easier to just keep adding the numbers till I got a single digit and then determined what plus my number got me 9 and that was the answer.

  • @sgtforge21 Yup, I'd go along with that. Or a mixture of both, whatever makes the sum easier.

  • The magic trick only works around 95% of the time. This is because if the person multiplying the numbers never uses a 9(or 2 3's or 2 6's or a 3 and a 6) then it won't be a multiple of 9. Or as orcyngiser was saying, if the digits given add up to a multiple of 9, then you won't be sure which one it is.

  • Congratulations James! I really enjoy all your videos! You make math alot more interesting!

  • epic spinning haha

  • what if the sum of the rest of the digits is a multiple of 9? How do u tell whether the missing digit is 9 or 0?

  • FINALLY REVEALED!!! AHA!

  • @slipknot09atforum no problem.
