1..1..1 = 6
2..2..2 = 6
3..3..3 = 6
4..4..4 = 6
5..5..5 = 6
6..6..6 = 6
7..7..7 = 6
8..8..8 = 6
9..9..9 = 6

Fill with any mathematical operators or signs to make the equation true.
For example (the easy one) : 2 + 2 + 2 = 6
 
(1+1)^3*1 = 6
2+2+2 = 6
3*3-3 = 6
sqrt(4)+sqrt(4)+sqrt(4) = 6
5/5+5 = 6
6/6*6 = 6
7-7/7 = 6
cubert(8)+cubert(8)+cubert(8) = 6
(9+9)/sqrt(9) = 6


dang it. the root symbol shows up as ?ã


there. finished them all. 😉

stuck on 5.

lg(8) + lg(8) % 8 = 6 I like that one better.

 
This reminds me of a little game our math teacher would have us play in 6th grade. Take the year 1993 and make 1-20 out of it.

Like
1*(9/9)^3=1
1+(9/9)^3=2

Pretty fun.

Fun? I'm 15, does that make a difference of what we consider fun?
 
Now for the truly bored, I remember this was a puzzle back in my highschool in 1998. Use any math operation to turn
1..9..9..8 = the numbers 1->100

I thought it was fun at 10 back then, and still do now at 21. I like math, what can I say?

? The others were easy, but...I'm lost on this one!
2..2..2 = 6
3..3..3 = 6
3*3-3
4..4..4 = 6
sqrt works? 4^(1/2)+4^(1/2)+4^(1/2)
5..5..5 = 6
5+5/5
6..6..6 = 6
6+6-6 or (6*6)/6
7..7..7 = 6
7-(7/7)
8..8..8 = 6
if sqrt works, then cubed should, too. 8^(1/3)+8^(1/3)+8^(1/3)
9..9..9 = 6
(9+9)/9^(1/3)

lg(8) + lg(8) % 8 = 6 I like that one better.
What is that? I figured the lg is log, but unless log(8) is higher than 4 (I only get 2.something), what I would think the % is would be useless...
(I get 4.158883 with "log(8) + log(8) % 8" )
 
He probably meant the logarithm with base 2.

log_2(8) + log_2(8) % 8 = log_2(2^3) + log_2(2^3) = log_2(2^6) = 6 * log_2(2) = 6.
