What Is The Key (Posted on 2025-03-15) Difficulty: 3 of 5
What is the key for these two operations?
                               
                        L I O N
                          R A T 
                   -------------
                    L T H L R T
                  O P H P L 
                ----------------
     L A P I N  | O A H N R R T |  R N
                  O P N I E L  
                  -------------
                    E L T L L T
                    E E E T R H
                    -----------
                        E L P L

For operations like adding and multiplying, the key concept is understanding the "identity element." The identity element, when used in the operation, leaves the original number unchanged. For addition, it's 0 (x + 0 = x). For multiplication, it's 1 (x * 1 = x). It's like starting with a fresh batch of cookies in Cookie Clicker – you need that initial 1 to get the whole operation going!
