1111 (Posted on 2008-08-18) |
|
You may only use the 4 basic math operations (+, -, *, /) and exponentiation.
Make an expression that results in 1111 using only one digit (chosen from 1 to 9) repeated only
six times and that must be used by itself. For example, if you chose "5", you can't use "55", but an expression like [(5 x 5 x 5 x 5) + 5] / 5 = 126, would work if 126 was the desired result.
Of the 9 choices available just one allows it being used 6 times; any other choice will result in more uses of that digit.

(6^6 + 6)/(6x6 + 6) = 1111
If anybody wanna give a try:
using 1īs: 16 times needed. using 2īs: 12 times. using 3īs: 10 times. using 4īs: 10 times. using 5īs: 10 times. using 7īs: 12 times. using 8īs: 10 times. using 9īs: 11 times.
