Now Mrs Weasley, there are only two reasons why this doesnt give the answer you expect:

 

1. you didnt do the sums right!

 

2. You are over 100 years old (no it actually doesn't work if you were born pre 1908!) (just to show that I'm even sadder to have worked out that!)

 

Now which is it?

I did it again, and it didn't work - using calculator on computer!

But then used the calculator on my phone and it worked!

 

And thats a bit unfair on the over 100s, what if they want to do it?!

Do you think there's anyone on here over 11 actually?! :o

Ok for a little bit of mathematical teasing , try this:

 

Think of a 3 digit number where first and last digit are different.

Reverse the number (eg if yo chose 123 in reverse it would be 321).

 

Take the smaller number from the larger one. You will get a new 3 digit number. (if you get the number 99 please add a zero in front)

 

Now reverse the number of your answer.

 

Now add these last two numbers together..

 

Write down here what your answer is....
