Revisiting 8 golfers in two foursomes 2014-08-19
steve pose la question :

I noticed you had an answer on how can you put 8 golfers in even foursomes over 7 games so that everyone plays with everyone equally. However the formula showed the following sequence that was used but did not go past the second day. Can you change the 0s and 1s into the numbers 1 to 8 instead. Here is what you have written:
Day 0 : (0, 0, 0, 0, 1, 1, 1, 1)
Day 1 : (0, 0, 1, 1, 0, 0, 1, 1)
Day 2 : (0, 1, 0, 1, 0, 1, 0, 1)
Day 3 : (0, 1, 1, 0, 1, 0, 0, 1)
Day 4 : (0, 0, 1, 1, 1, 1, 0, 0)
Day 5 : (0, 1, 0, 1, 1, 0, 1, 0)
Day 6 : (0, 1, 1, 0, 0, 1, 1, 0)

0123456789 2009-03-25
Dr. pose la question :
Many years ago I discovered that there are 33 numbers which, when multiplied by 0123456789, simply rearrange the digits. Surprisingly (to me at least) is the fact that the digits of all of those 33 numbers add up to one of the 6 "cardinal" numbers 1, 2, 4, 5, 7, and 8. For example 6 + 2 = 8 and 62 X 0123456789 = 7654320918 etc.
Another interesting (to me) fact is that only the cardinal numbers 1, 2, 4, 5, 7, and 8 rearrange the digits in the number 9876543210.
My question is: "Is this known to anyone but me and the people I have told?"

Golfing with 8 or 12 2006-02-13
Carolyn pose la question :
I have a couple of questions that my dad asked me and I do not think it can be done in the manner he wants it to come out to.

He is going on a golf trip in June. There are going to be either 8 or 12 players playing 4 rounds of golf.

The questions that he says will not work and I do not know how to figure it out either is

4 Rounds of golf is for sure. 18 hole Rounds each

4 Players to a group

Either 8 or 12 players can every player play with every player in a group at least once during those 4 rounds.

If this can be done can you give me the combinations for both 8 and 12 , so I can help out my dad. Along with how you you figure this out.

The "22" puzzle and the "1089" puzzle 2004-04-22
Marcelle pose la question :

1. Choose 3 digits from 1-9
2. Make all the 2 digit numbers you can from these (6)
3. Add the 3 original digits and divide them into the sum from step 2.
The answer is always '22'. I just can't understand why. Can you please help.

Another one related to this is it:
1. Choose a three digit number ensuring the first and third digit are differnt by at least two.
2. Make the reverse three digit number and subtract the smaller one from the larger of these.
3. Take this answer and reverse it and add these two 3 digit numbers .

eg:
643 - 346 = 297
297 + 792 = 1089

it doesn't matter what numbers are used, the results are alwasy the same. eg 22 or 1089
