Re: What is the common operation?

Hi;

Have a pleasant night. Welcome to the forum!


In mathematics, you don't understand things. You just get used to them.
If it ain't broke, fix it until it is.
Always satisfy the Prime Directive of getting the right answer above all else.

Re: What is the common operation?

For anyone coming across this thread before the puzzle's second appearance here (where it is discussed further), I gave a solution (not sure if it's 'the' solution) in post #13 of that second thread.
