  • 1. to Math Magic Welcome
  • 2. Power in Numbers
    • Pick a number between 1 and 9
    • Multiply your number by 9
    • Multiply your new number by 12,345,679
    • We will guess your number
  • 3. Power in Numbers
    • The steps:
    • Pick a number between 1 and 9
    • Multiply your number by 9
    • Multiply your new number by 12,345,679
    • We will guess your number
    How it Works
    • The Trick:
    • Simple (or not-so-simple) arithmetic!
    • Note: We multiplied our number by 9 and by 12,345,679
  • 4. Age Analysis
    • Multiply the first number of your age by 5
    • Add 3 to your new number
    • Double that figure
    • Add the second number of your age to that
    • figure
    • And the result is
  • 5. Age Analysis
    • The steps:
    • Multiply the first number of your age by 5
    • Add 3 to your new number
    • Double that figure
    • Add the second number of your age to that figure
    • Subtract 6 from that result
    • And the result is
    How it Works
    • The Trick:
    • Another arithmetic trick! Numbers are sooo cool!
  • 6. Do You Feel Lucky?
    • Select a three-digit number
    • Enter it twice in the calculator (e.g. 123123)
    • Double that figure
    • The number is divisible by
    • The number is divisible by
    • Do you feel lucky?
    • The number is divisible by
  • 7. Do You Feel Lucky?
    • The steps:
    • Select a three-digit number
    • Enter it twice in the calculator (e.g. 123123)
    • Double that figure
    • The number is divisible by 11
    • The number is divisible by your original 3-digit number
    • Do you feel lucky?
    • The number is divisible by 7 AND 13
    • And the result is
    How it Works The Trick: Entering a three-digit number twice (e.g. 123123) is equivalent to multiplying it by 1001. Since 1001 = 11 x 7 x 13, the six-digit number will be divisible by 7, 11, 13 and the original three-digit number.
  • 8. Curious Math
    • Try this and you will be amazed
    • Follow the rules
    • And do not cheat
    • Just do it step-by-step
    • Here we go
  • 9. Curious Math
    • Pick a number from 1 to 9
    • Subtract 5
    • Multiply by 3
    • Square the number
    (that is multiply the number by itselfNOT square root and yes, you can square 0. 0 x 0 = 0)
  • 10. Curious Math
    • Add the digits until you get only one digit
    • (e.g. 64 = 6 + 4 = 10 = 1+ 0 = 1)
    • If the number is less than 5, add 5
    • Otherwise, subtract 4
    • Multiply by 2
    • Subtract 6
  • 11. Curious Math
    • Map the digit to a letter in the alphabet
    • (e.g. A=1, B=2, C=3, )
    • Pick a name of a country that begins
    • with that letter
    • Take the second letter in the country name,
    • and think of a mammal that begins with
    • that letter
    • Think of the color of that mammal
  • 12. Curious Math
    • You will be amazed
    • Are you ready
    • Here we go
    You have a gray elephant from Denmark!
  • 13. Curious Math or at least you probably have a gray elephant from Denmark. How it Works
    • The trick:
    • The first half of this magical problem is another arithmetic trick. You will (it is certain) map a letter to the number 4 to get D).
    • From there we are not certain where you will go, but your answer is quite probable!
    e.g. You could have selected another country that starts with D such as the Dominican Republic or Dominica or Djiboutibut it is not probable. You also could have selected another animal that starts with E such as an elk or an erminebut thats not probable either : )
  • 14. Math Magic Thank you for attending There are three kinds of mathematicians -- those who can count and those who can't.
