Beauty of Math!

1 x 8 + 1 = 9
12 x 8 + 2 = 98
123 x 8 + 3 = 987
1234 x 8 + 4 = 9876
12345 x 8 + 5 = 98765
123456 x 8 + 6 = 987654
1234567 x 8 + 7 = 9876543
12345678 x 8 + 8 = 98765432
123456789 x 8 + 9 = 987654321

---------------------------------------------------------



1 x 9 + 2 = 11
12 x 9 + 3 = 111
123 x 9 + 4 = 1111
1234 x 9 + 5 = 11111
12345 x 9 + 6 = 111111
123456 x 9 + 7 = 1111111
1234567 x 9 + 8 = 11111111
12345678 x 9 + 9 = 111111111
123456789 x 9 +10= 1111111111
---------------------------------------------------------------

9 x 9 + 7 = 88
98 x 9 + 6 = 888
987 x 9 + 5 = 8888
9876 x 9 + 4 = 88888
98765 x 9 + 3 = 888888
987654 x 9 + 2 = 8888888
9876543 x 9 + 1 = 88888888
98765432 x 9 + 0 = 888888888
987654321 x 9 - 1 = 8888888888
9876543210 x 9 - 2 = 88888888888






Brilliant, isn't it?

---------------------------------------------------------





And look at this symmetry:

1 x 1 = 1
11 x 11 = 121
111 x 111 = 12321
1111 x 1111 = 1234321
11111 x 11111 = 123454321
111111 x 111111 = 12345654321
1111111 x 1111111 = 1234567654321
11111111 x 11111111 = 123456787654321
111111111 x 111111111=12345678987654321

------------------------------------------------------------

Now, take a look at this...

101%

From a strictly mathematical viewpoint:

What Equals 100%? What does it mean to give MORE than 100%?
Ever wonder about those people who say they are giving more than 100%?
We have all been in situations where someone wants you to
GIVE OVER 100% .

How about ACHIEVING 101%?

What equals 100% in life?

Here's a little mathematical formula that might help
answer these questions:


If:

A B C D E F G H I J K L M N O
P Q R S T U V W X Y Z


Is represented as:

1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 10 11 12 13 14 15
16 17 18 19 20 21 22 23 24 25 26.


Then:
H-A-R-D-W-O-R- K

8+1+18+4+23+15+18+11 = 98%


And:
K-N-O-W-L-E-D-G-E

11+14+15+23+12+5+4+7+5 = 96%


But:
A-T-T-I-T-U-D-E

1+20+20+9+20+21+4+5 = 100%



But THEN, look how far the love of God will take you:


L-O-V-E-O-F-G-O-D

12+15+22+5+15+6+7+15+4 = 101%



Therefore, one can conclude with mathematical certainty that:


While Hard Work and Knowledge will get you close,
and Attitude will get you there, It's the Love of God that will
put you over the top!

Ok..look! I have math phobia.. I couldn't look at it long enough to see the beauty. I just see numbers and feel a sense of failure and confusion. My first bad grade ever was in math in 5th grade when my eyes went bad and I couldn't see the board. Thusly I missed some crucial building blocks for math and have struggled the rest of my life. I still can't do %'s or fractions very well etc...
But DH loves math and stuff. I will show it to him and I am sure he will appreciate.

I'm not great at math, either, beyond balancing the checkbook.

But it's good to see you again, Bumpus. How ya been?
