tee hee.

I tried for a few minutes tried to shove the pencil through the computer screen when I came up with 26 like 12 different ways

Thon · Post by **Thon** » Wed Feb 15, 2006 4:05 pm

6*8 = 48

48 + 2 = 50

50 / (square root of 4) = 25

bow down plz :bowdown:

No bowing, I already asked the question...

it took me 5 minutes with a piece of scratch paper, while you were busy scratching your ass for 4 hours

Too bad you used the "2" twice...

YOU LOSE!

Not only did I not use paper, chief, look at the initial post and my response's time. 6 minute spread, while playing EQ2.

Thon · Post by **Thon** » Wed Feb 15, 2006 7:31 pm

that's not where i got the 4 hours, i got that from your initial post at 3:15 pm and your comment at 7:34 pm. in between you had 4 additional posts without solving anything, other than Yamori being off by 1 in his subtraction.

lol wtf, you want credit for solving a problem because you asked a question?

forgetting the fact that the answers to your questions were pretty clear in the description of the problem itself.

2/8= .25
.25 + 6 = 6.25
6.25 * 4 = 25

Tossica wins, Thon doesn't.

Thon · Post by **Thon** » Wed Feb 15, 2006 11:41 pm

gann math

but nice job~

Thon · Post by **Thon** » Thu Feb 16, 2006 1:24 am

'6' / (square root of '4') = 3
'8' - 3 = 5
5 ^ '2' = 25

if square roots are allowed(doesn't use 2 twice, since the square root of a number is that # with exponent 0.5)

Listen cocksheath, I had that "solved" already and asked if those functions were able to be used. Since it wasn't specifically stated that I could, I decided it wasn't correct and never posted it.

Harrison · Post by **Harrison** » Thu Feb 16, 2006 3:17 am

Now that I think about it, it isn't allowed.

Arithmetic doesn't involve ^2 or square roots etc.

Tacks · Post by **Tacks** » Thu Feb 16, 2006 7:35 am

Oh come on guys, he totally knew this answer before it was even posted. How stupid of you to think he didn't know what it was ahead of time! Of COURSE that's why he answered the question!

Nice job everyone! Thanks for your help.

Finawin, stop being a baby.

That and the person he called to ask didn't map it all out for him initially.

well think about it again big guy. last i checked 2 was one of the numbers you were supposed to use. that's why i put those single quotes around 2, 4, 6, and 8. why don't you just leave this thread, and stick with something you're good at like a pie eating contest.

ARITHMETIC DOESN'T INVOLVE SQUARES OR SQUARE ROOTS

Maeya · Post by **Maeya** » Thu Feb 16, 2006 2:53 pm

Are you sure?

A square is just a shorthand way for notating you are multiplying.

5^2 = 5x5

That looks like arithmatic to me...

It's just a sneaky way of using all the numbers without using any twice.
