I understand how the puzzle works, but don't understand the significance behind it.

Are we supposed to post how it works?

Start by subtraction to get the first half of the number followed by addition to get the second half of the number

It was posted elsewhere as an intelligence test. Seems stupid to me ....but I thought most here would get it pretty easy. That's what I expected.
Were not supposed to post answer just that you get it or wTF is this about ....

Math is my very, very worst subject. Now how that happened is a mystery to me. Dad was a physics major and Mom was a chemistry major. That gene obviously skipped me.

Indoctrination instead of education.

Sorry I changed the subject.

Doc should give you all trophies for participating.

I'll settle for knowing that it wasn't at all hard to decipher. As my programming tutor used to say, "There are only 10 kinds
of people in the world - those who understand binary and those who don't!"

is as simple as pie.
But ... pie is not so simple. To eat pie is simple ....to make pie not so much. Heck the crust alone can be tough to make. So, I have to say pie is tougher than this puzzle. :hide: :yum:

It has nothing to do with math.
Maybe listed as number manipulation test would be better.

It is math.
Pure math.
Nothing but math.

Maybe not the math you were taught (1=1=2, etc), but math nonetheless.

Careful, you may wake up and find reality.

Hey, what about that dam you are building - illegal of course. Where was that?

All my life I have done things considered illegal by somebody but .......
I define reality.
It is in a minor 80 acres cannyon where I keep some bees.
The original owner left the place to his grand kids and they destroy or abandoned some of his fantastic work.
I just like to build things.
