So let’s start about these amazing facts:

Fact 1: Every odd number contains the letter “e” in it.

Fact 2: The only number spelt with letters arranged in alphabetical or ascending order is “forty”.

Fact 3: The only number spelt with letters arranged in descending order is “one”.

Fact 4: Obelus is the symbol for division.

Fact 5: The only number from 0 to 1000 that contains the letter e in it is “one thousand”.

Fact 6: 1/100^th part of a second is called jiffy.

Fact 7: Temperature -40 ^oC is equal to -40 ^oF. [C = Celsius, F = Fahrenheit].

Fact 8: 2 is the only even prime number.

Fact 9: Pythagoras’ constant 1.141 is the square root of 2.

Fact 10: The only number that cannot be represented in Roma numerals is zero.

Fact 11: 6 weeks = 10! seconds. [Proof: 10 x 9 x 8 x 7 x 6 x 5 x 4 x 3 x 2 x 1 = 3,628,800 seconds = 60,480 minutes = 1,008 hours = 42 days = 6 weeks].

Fact 12: 111,111,111 x 111,111,111 = 12,345,678,987,654,321.

The 3n + 1 Problem or Collatz Problem

The 3n + 1 Problem, also known as the 3n + 1 Conjecture or Collatz Problem or Collatz Conjecture, is that if any positive integer n is iteratively operated using two simple rules: Addition and Division , then the end-result always leads to the number 1. The Rules Rule 1 [Addition]: If the number n is odd, then triple it and add 1. Rule 2 [Division]: If the number n is even, then divide it by 2. Steps to Follow Step 1: Take any positive integer n. Step 2: Check whether the integer is odd or even. Step 3: If the integer is odd, then triple it and add 1. Step 4: If the integer is even, then divide it by 2. Step 5: Repeat this procedure. Step 6: The end-result always leads to the number 1. For Example Integer n = 5 5 is an odd number, so triple it and add 1. The value of n = 16. 16 is an even number, so divide it by 2. The value of n = 8. 8 is an even number, so divide it by 2. The va...

Universe Secret Code 369 Theory

When it comes to the origin of the universe secret code 369 theory, one name associated with this amazing concept is ‘Nikola Tesla’. Nikola Tesla [10 July 1856 – 07 January 1943] was not only a great inventor / scientist, but also the greatest mind of all the time. He has done a plenty of research throughout his life, and highly recognized for his contributions towards the following : High Voltage, High Frequency Power Experiments Alternating Current (AC) Electricity Supply System Apart from the above-mentioned contributions, he has given ‘Universe Secret Code 369 Theory’ and has called the number 369 – the key to the universe. Now the question that will come to the curious minds is that why Nikola Tesla has called this number the key to the universe. The answer to this question is described in this post. Let start with a specific pattern as shown below: 1 1 + 1 => 2 2 + 2 => 4 4 + 4 => 8 8 + 8 => 16; 1 + 6 => 7 16 + 16 => 32; 3 + 2 => 5 >>>>>>...

Kaprekar Constant 6174 for Four-digit Number

Dattatreya Ramchandra Kaprekar (D. R. Kaprekar; 1905 – 1986) was an Indian mathematician who discovered several classes of natural numbers including Kaprekar Constant. The number 6174 is called Kaprekar Constant for four-digit number. Why is the number 6174 called Kaprekar Constant? In 1949, D. R. Kaprekar discovered an interesting property of the number 6174 through the mathematical calculations. D. R. Kaprekar observed that when any four-digit number of non-identical digits (not all digits are same) is arranged in two parts – highest number and lowest number, and difference is calculated using subtraction method, then the end-result will be always 6174 either in the first step or in no more than 7 steps. If the process is continued even after getting the end-result 6174, then the end-result will be always 6174 at each Iteration, therefore the number 6174 is known as Kaprekar Constant. Steps to Follow Take any four-digit number with different digits. Form the highest nu...
