How can three nines be arranged to make twenty? - Answers

With a bit of imagination, anything is possible. I tried it myself for two seconds before looking it up.I found the answer on page 192 in The Canterbury Puzzles and Other Curious Problems.You not only arrange three nines, but you also introduce a bit of mathematical notation (a plus sign, a ratio, and a decimal point).The answer is (9+9)/.9In adding 9 and 9 you get 18. You then divide it by .9 (or 9/10).18/(9/10) = (18*10)/9 = 180/9 or 2*10 = 20Or you could just pop it into a calculator and get 20 that way.When I first saw the question, I thought you wanted the numbers to look like '20'.With a bit of imagination, anything is possible. After all, 9+9=21.
