The Amazing Math

They say that Mathematics is in everyday life! We can hear that a lot mostly from our teachers, I remember they even sing a song of sort!

Well, what I will show you is really amazing. You will end up wandering after you read this very simple yet truly amazing mathematical equations ;-)

Enjoy ^_^

1 * 8 + 1 = 9
12 * 8 + 2 = 98
123 * 8 + 3 = 987
1234 * 8 + 4 = 9876
12345 * 8 + 5 = 98765
123456 * 8 + 6 = 987654
1234567 * 8 + 7 = 9876543
12345678 * 8 + 8 = 98765432
123456789 * 8 + 9 = 987654321

1 * 9 + 2 = 11
12 * 9 + 3 = 111
123 * 9 + 4 = 1111
1234 * 9 +5 = 11111
12345 * 9 + 6 = 111111
123456 * 9 + 7 = 1111111
1234567 * 9 + 8 = 11111111
12345678 * 9 + 9 = 111111111
123456789 * 9 + 10 = 1111111111

9 * 9 + 7 = 88
98 * 9 + 6 = 888
987 * 9 + 5 = 8888
9876 * 9 + 4 = 88888
98765 * 9 + 3 = 888888
987654 * 9 + 2 = 8888888
9876543 * 9 + 1 = 88888888
98765432 * 9 + 0 = 888888888
987654321 * 9 - 1 = 8888888888
9876543210 * 9 - 2 = 88888888888

Isn't it amazing?


Well, it's not done yet:

1 * 1 = 1
11 * 11 = 121
111 * 111 = 12321
1111 * 1111 = 1234321
11111 * 11111 = 123454321
111111 * 111111 = 12345654321
1111111 * 1111111 = 1234567654321
11111111 * 11111111 = 123456787654321
111111111 * 111111111 = 12345678987654321

Now after you amazed yourself with some of the wonders of mathematics, let's try to be a little more serious...

When we talk about 100%, a lot of things really comes to mind. You would agree with me when I say that anyone can give their 100% at any given time. We sometimes push ourselves to the limit just to give our best, our 100%.

You might ask though, can I give more? Can I give 101%? What will I do to achieve that 101% in life?

You can site a lot of examples really just to prove a point which will consider yourself 101%.

Let's put this simple mathematical representation to know how we can achieve more than 100% in life ;-)

Let's represent:

A B C D E F G H I J K L M N O P Q R S T U V W X Y Z

into:

1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 10 11 12 13 14 15 16 17 18 19 20 21 22 23 24 25 26

just a simple representation of letters into its corresponding numbers right?

Let's see what's "education" will give us:


E   D     U    C    A   T      I     O     N
5 + 4 + 21 + 3 + 1 + 20 + 9 + 15 + 14 = 92%

Let's see what's "hard work" can offer:


H   A    R    D    W     O     R      K
8 + 1 + 18 + 4 + 23 + 15 + 18 + 11 = 98%

How about "knowledge":


K     N      O    W     L     E    D   G    E
11 + 14 + 15 + 23 + 12 + 5 + 4 + 7 + 5 = 96%

Let's see about "attitude":


A   T      T      I     T     U     D    E
1 + 20 + 20 + 9 + 20 + 21 + 4 + 5 = 100%

Wow, mathematics says that attitude will give us 100% in life! What will give us 101% then?

Let's try "love of God":


L      O     V     E     O     F    G    O    D
12 + 15 + 22 + 5 + 15 + 6 + 7 + 15 + 4 = 101%

After we have represented all these, we can safely say and surely conclude that while education obviously is not enough, hard work and knowledge can get you close and attitude will get you there, it's always the Love of God that will put us over the top ;-)

Amazing, yet true!

Cheerio!

The Most Expensive Philippine Coin Ever Sold

I personally am fond of collecting old coins. I have an ample collection, and decent if I may add, of Philippine old coins. Though I collect coins for a hobby, some people kept on asking me how I acquire those coins and if I’m selling one. So in some cases, when I visit the Bangko Sentral ng Pilipinas (Central Bank of the Philippines), I always try to order an additional from my own to sell or give it as a gift to my friends. I always wonder, what Philippine coin is the most expensive ever sold, and how much. Priced at $22, 000 or Php 1,038,136.00 as of this writing ($1 = Php 47.19), the 1903 San Francisco Mint fifty centavos is perhaps the most expensive United States-Philippines coin ever sold. Only 2 specimens have reported and only one formally auctioned for the price mentioned. Do not mistake this one for the common 1903 Philadelphia Mint fifty centavos. This coin is an absolute rarity. How this coin surfaced? The story behind that incident is still a myste

Hanamichi Sakuragi: In Real Life

I am not that young, though I am not that old to have watched the Manga Series Slum Dunk. A lot of people is being fascinated with the game of basketball. Almost everyone knows how to play the game. Maybe, just maybe, NBA really popularized the sports. Apparently, one story caught my attention, and surely, it is really worth to tell ;-) Slam Dunk (スラムダンク Suramu Danku?) is a sports-themed manga series written by Takehiko Inoue about a basketball team from Shōhoku High School. It was first serialized in Shueisha's Weekly Shōnen Jump in Japan from 1990 to 1996 and had also been adapted into an anime series by Toei Animation which had been broadcast worldwide, enjoying much popularity particularly in Japan, several other Asian countries and Europe. Inoue later used basketball as a central theme in two subsequent manga titles: Buzzer Beater and Real. In 2010, Inoue received special commendations from the Japan Basketball Association for helping popularize basketball in Japan.

The Great Badjang or Giant Taro

As we try to come up with things to do to make our days productive this Pandemic, a lot of people are leaning towards Gardening. Here in the Philippines, people are becoming crazy with a certain plant. It has large leaves which resembles an Elephant’s ear. Badjang, as we call it here in the Philippines, scientifically called Alocasia macrorrhizos, is a species of flowering plant in the arum family that it is native to rainforests of Island Southeast Asia, New Guinea, and Queensland and has long been cultivated here in the Philippines, many Pacific islands, and elsewhere in the tropics. It is also famous as Giant Taro. The giant taro was originally domesticated in the Philippines, but are known from wild specimens to early Austronesians in Taiwan. From the Philippines, they spread outwards to the rest of Island Southeast Asia and eastward to Oceania where it became one of the staple crops of Pacific Islanders. They are one of the four main species of aroids (taros) cultivated by Austron
