Torn!

lol nah

you not ? k.

torn!!!

i am slightly confused on this problem, I have
actually, serious kine, discussed your riddle with my
physics and precalc teacher, both of which didn't know.
thus, i ventured around the corner to my Alg2 teacher, and
she had a very good answer.

81

it's 9 times it's sum, which is nine.

actually i didn't make my rounds to my teachers that'd be gross.

Kick ass!

You have some good teachers

81 is the answer... and here is why.

The number is 81, simply because
81 = 9 (8 + 1).

How does one find this number?

Let t be the digit in the tens place and u be the digit in the units place. Then, the number is 10 t + u, and the sum of its digits is t + u. The following equation can be readily written:

10 t + u = 9 t + 9 u or
1 t = 8 u.

Thus, t / u = 8 / 1. Since t and u are digits, t must be 8 and u must be 1

no i didn't really ask my teachers.

but at first i was thinking of some HUGE number, then
i came accross 81.

you explain it in a convoluted way.

my explanation:

8+1=9
9 x 9 = 81

k. :D

the egg came first.

because through the process of evolution, something
gave "birth" to the egg that hatched a chicken! w00t

Depends on your belief. I believe the chicken because in Genesis it says that God made all the animals, not all the eggs.

Then 'Noa' put them all in an ark, 2 by 2...

Noa.... haha

that a petrodactal (sp, but it the flying bird thing, no feathers) cross-breeded with some weird land creature that we don't know about.

It had to be the chicken, because:

All roads are built with a slight crown, therefore an egg would not be able to cross under it's own power--it would just roll back to the curb where it started before it even reached the half way point. Consequently, it had to be the chicken, because as explained above, only the chicken can cross the road!

That's my answer, and I'm stickin' to it!

not believing in evolution, I take the stance that the chicken came first.
