I just put the values into a matrix and solved it...it wasn't that bad to get row-reduced echelon form... | |||

I ended up with NSNick's answer, so the point is his. Scores 1st. Grey-20 points 2nd. Heian-794-16 points 3rd. NSNick-10 points 4th. Kirby all the way-8 points 5th. wolfman2000-5 points 6th. Emptyeye-1 point 6th. RavenX-1 point 6th. Slash Dafter-1 point 6th. Xkeeper-1 point 11th. neotransotaku-0 points 11th. Gb boy-0 points 11th. Teddylot-0 points Question 64 (1 point)- Find all factors of this number: 2446880 (edited by JJ64 on 07-26-04 11:04 AM) (edited by JJ64 on 07-27-04 11:17 AM) |

There aren't many, a multiple is a number that can be divided by the given number, and the only one of that which yeilds a whole number is zero (0/2446880 = 0). Even one doesn't. So for answers, I got zero. Factors, however, are another story. You can divide this thing by one, two, four, five, and eight without getting a single remainder. But that's not multiples, so I'm just covering bases... |

Surely JJ meant to ask for factors! But with another interpretation, he could be asking for the number multiplied by all single digits:

Well while we're going for random interpretations, he might be asking what happens when we multiply the single digits of the number together: 2x4 = 8 2x6=12 2x8=16 2x0=0 4x6=24 4x8=32 4x0=0 6x8=48 6x0=0 8x0=0 That's some odd logic there. There's also multiplying all the single digits of the number together, to get 2x4x4x6x8x8x0 = 0! Hehe. |

I should really pay more attention to that, I meant factors. I'll fix it now, then. |

Well, the prime factorization of this 2466880 is 25 x 5 x 41 x 373. Which would mean that the following numbers would be factors (hope I didn't miss any): 2 (2 x 1223440) 4 (4 x 611720) 5 (5 x 489376) 8 (8 x 305860) 10 (10 x 244688) 16 (16 x 152930) 20 (20 x 122344) 32 (32 x 76465) 40 (40 x 61172) 41 (41 x 59680) 80 (80 x 30586) 82 (82 x 29840) 160 (160 x 15293) 164 (164 x 14920) 205 (205 x 11936) 328 (328 x 7460) 373 (373 x 6560) 410 (410 x 5968) 656 (656 x 3730) 746 (746 x 3280) 820 (820 x 2984) 1312 (1312 x 1865) 1492 (1492 x 1640) And then all the numbers on the right sides of those multiplication signs above. |

Yes but then you're just throwing more primes into it and I just stayed awake for 25 hours what the hell am I doing trying to 1-up Heian? Meh, we haven't even thought about learning Prime Factorization in my classes yet. |

Hieght = 6, radius = 12, This we just take the area of a sphere with radius 12 and add it to the height of a cylinder with radius 12 and height 6. 4/3(pi)x12^3 = 7238.229, + (pix36x12) = 8595.3975 units^3. |

Yay, another conditional statement. IFF makes these answers kinda funky, but they're still along the same lines. ICS: It is sunny IFF the sun is out. Converse: The sun is out if and only if it is sunny. Inverse: It is not sunny if and only if the sun is not out. Contrapositive: The sun is not out if and only if it is not sunny. I think that's how it should work. If it doesn't, then I've placed the IFFs wrong. |

You guys are piling up the points while I'm asleep! No matter, my rally continues with the following: If x=|7y|, then the first equation is |21y+43y|=162 (not |-21y+43y|=162 since 3x must be positive) Thus |64y|=162 is valid, meaning that: y can equal 81/32, -81/32. x has to be positive and can therefore equal only 567/32 and not its negative. And NSNick, aren't you missing a whole bunch of 2- and 3-digit factors in that number? (edited by Heian-794 on 07-28-04 11:13 AM) |

My secret is to wake up early and go to bed late, then nap during the day while JJ's out having the life that none of us have. | |||

I can't nap, nor can I wake up early. JJ is 1 tz behind us, so he is up uber early, feeding us math problems. Yeah, we're nerds. ^ not! (edited by Gb boy on 07-28-04 03:44 PM) |

I have a late-night job, so I'm usually awake from about 2 PM to 6 AM Japanese time, which is 13 hours ahead of the East Coast in the summer -- I guess that would be 1 AM to 5 PM ET. This works against me because it seems like JJ posts his puff questions while I sleep, and then the tough ones after he's been up for a few hours to think about it! |
