This is the game: Somebody submits a number, and other people have to take it apart in any way they can (factors, digits, multiplied digits, added digits, etc) and find either an important date in history (year) or something cool you can do with the number without using ultra high-level math skills. You can add century numbers such as 19 for the 1900s or 5 for the 500s. Please no numbers over 200.

Examples:

Number: 110

Transformation:
Factors of 110: 55 and 2
55+2=57
Add a 19 in front of that and you get 1957, the year Sputnik was launched.

Number: 38

Transformation: Factors: 14 and 2
14+2=16
Digits in 16: 10 and 6
16x2(factor of 38)=32
32+6(digit in 16)=38
38=Original number.

The first person to transform a number well gets to pick the next number.

I'll start us off:

Number: 141

Number 141 backwards is 141.

3 + 3 + 4 + 9 - 8 = 11 (add digits)

1 + 1 = 02 (add digits again)

Add a 20 in front and you get 2002, the year Perfection joined CFC.

17

1x7=7
7x17=119
(17+1) added to the first digit of 119 makes 1919, the year that the Treaty of Versailles was finally ratified.

39

Mar 17, 2008, 04:10 PM
39= 2^(2*2+2/2)+(2*2+2)+(2/2)
Breaks down into:
2^(4+1)+(4+2)+(1)
2^(5)+6+1
32+6+1=39.

Similar things can be done with any number, so nobody copy.

That's how many seconds you have left to live after this message self-destructs

Perfection
