Ok...that's a little freaky.  I did it 5 times in a row and it produced 4 different pictures.  It got it right every time.   :eek7:

All the possible correct answers for that formula will have the same symbol next to it.   It is an old Jedi Mind Trick.   :drunk:
It is a pretty cool trick though.  :thumbsup:

But I had 4 different symbols throughout the 5 times I did it.

Each time you do it, the symbols change to throw you off.  To prove it, keep choosing the same number.  The symbol next to your answer will change each time. :thumbsup:

Another thing to test it is to choose a new number and going through the formula without  changing the key at the end.  Just do it on a piece of paper.  Your answer will have the same symbol.

Thanks for figuring that out!

It is all variables of 9, for example look at the chart and go 9x1, 9x2, 9x3, 9x4, etc.. and the pictures will be the same for those.
However, the formula is only slightly flawed with 4 other numbers in their that don't go with the 9 variable, but I'm sure you can figure it out.  I do this to freak out my nieces, nephews, and other kids and family members.  Just have to remember the other 4 numbers.  :bananasmi

My friends father would do a similar trick.. get your #, add this, add that, subtract this, divide that.  viola.. he would always guess your # if you did the math correct.. How??

before and division or multiply then he would ask you subtract your original #.. so all he had to do was keep track of all the other #'s. Fooled many people with this myself.  hehe
