Re: Find the number!
Hi;
You sure are happy! Anymore?
In mathematics, you don't understand things. You just get used to them.
Probability is the most important concept in modern science, especially as nobody has the slightest notion what it means.
90% of mathematicians do not understand 90% of currently published mathematics.

Re: Find the number!
IV.
My number is:
1) Nearest to 50.
2) Nearest to 7^2.
3) A prime number.
What is it?
Make sure the difference is the least so it could be nearest to 50 and 7^2.
