I didnt know where to post it so just posted here, if it belongs to some other section mod's please help me.

That's repost

I would put this in the joke/humor section

Good thread.

Check this out...

Try to multiply 142857 with 2,3,4,5,6.. Can you tell what's so special about results?

All the results contain only these digits: 1, 4, 2, 8, 5, 7

Am i correct?

Good find GC

the same numbers will come in result also but in jumbled form

I searched for it after the above post. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/142857_(number)

142,857 is the six repeating digits of 1/7, 0.142857, and is the best-known cyclic number in base 10. If you multiply the number by 2, 3, 4, 5, or 6, the answer will be a cyclic permutation of itself.

Correct, One more thing, Also check out the succeeding number for every number i.e 2 is followed by 8, 8 is followed by 5, 5 is followed by 7, 7 is followed by 1 and 1 is followed by 4.. In every case Just like circle

cyclic number

Assumption-
Let a=b

multiplying both sides by a,
a^2 = ab

Subtracting b^2 from both sides
(a^2) - (b^2) = ab - (b^2)

Now expanding above
(a-b)*(a+b) = b*(a-b)

canceling (a-b) on both sides we get,
(a+b) = b

hence if a=b=1
then we get (1+1)=1

ergo 2=1!!!!

The above proof is mathematically not right...
The flaw may be spotted.... :12:

^^a-b =(0) @flaw

^ right ofcourse!!

Tukka lag gaya...

(p.s dont be serious @ my non serious posts)

how can i!! i dint understand what you said

good thing I love math! the computation is just awesome, I wonder how long did it take to finish all those computation.

Are you serious or sarcastic? that was an insult to real mathematics

This is one of the best thread I have seen.
Great Work Starter.
