Can you think about a clock that is having only 9 in it......
Here it is........
Having 9s does not make it special.... U can design a clock having only 9 with 9/9 (=1), (9+9)/9(=2), (9+9+9)/9(=3) and so on...
What makes it really amazing is the fact that... it has only 3 9s in each digit representation. ..
Can I buy one?
CF: They only come in packs of nine.
I'm pretty sure the 1 is 9/9
the 1 is 9/9^9
it cant be 9/9^9 due to the order of operations. it would be (9/9)^9
it's actually (9/9), or select a combination of 9 items from 9 items. there's only one possibility so (9/9) = 1.
"it's actually (9/9), or select a combination of 9 items from 9 items. there's only one possibility so (9/9) = 1."
Wrong...Since (9/9)^9 = (9^9/9^9) = 387420489/387420489 =1...
it's (9/9)^9 otherwise the parentheses are pointless, they could have done (9/9) but probably wanted to keep with the three x9 theme.
@walliski since when does 1^anything equal anything other than 1?
Wow ... all sooo brainy .... yawn.
It's a cool clock, nuff said.
1 = [ sqrt(9) * sqrt(9) ] / 9
There's 3 9's for each "hour"... so it must be (9/9)^9
well the seven is kind of cheating. 6.9999 etc.
.999999999999 etc. = 1
If 1/3 = .3333333333333 etc
then 1/3 * 3 = 3/3 = 1
.3333333333333 etc * 3 = .9999999999999 etc = 1
Now here's a question: can we come up with 9 representations for each number using exactly 3 nines? it looks like we can for 1...
(9/9)=1
1^9 =1
(9/9)^9=1
Why do people suck at math?
I want to buy this clock! Any info where I could get one?
Make one! You need a printer and a clock.
haha, nice one haiironezumi. i would love to have this clock, ultimate nerd ftw.
I like how:
a. 9 is (9^9)^(1/9), not just 9.
b. 7 uses .9 repeating as 1.
