Math Is Fun Forum

I don't get it?

Aww, I was only 6 letters out.

Nope, nobody said anything.

Would that be somewhere to the east of the City of Rats?

It's still working fine for me

i?
I think words starting or ending with 'I' sound cool. e.g. Icicle, Isotope, Gemini. Plus, it's the square root of -1, which is pretty kewl 2.

But... there is nothing missing. You can't say that the smallest possible number is missing because there is no such thing. The concept of infinity eliminates it. Infinity is so infinitely enormous that it, by brute force, vanquishes the smallest possible number.

This is, in a way related,

Does 'int' in int(x) stand for integer? If it does then is x rounded up or down?

It would be nice if we had a weekly or even daily high-score board to encourage more use of this mathematical tool. Otherwise, once the 'eternal' highscores have been set, usage may stagnate.

Oh i see, so if I'm looking for integers between x and y, where x > 0, then I simply have to add one.

But what if I had a question, to say, find between 14 and 18 (inclusive) all integers divisible by 4:
(18 ÷ 4) - (13 ÷ 4) = 1.25. If I were to round this up as has been suggested it would be incorrect.

Yep, I usually find the first few questions are the slowest, and then the rest come much faster.

Well, seeing as complementary angles add up to 90 degrees and you have three times one of the angles, you can draw these algebraic conclusions:

1.

2.

You can now use simultaneous equations to find angle A.

EDIT: Guess pi man beat me to it
