-1

Hint: 0 = 0. but 1 = 27, the line breaks don't matter, and the answer has four letters.

additional observation #3 | Comment 11 of 27 |
(In reply to re: additional observation #2 by Gamer)

So, Gamer says I am on the right track.  Something should be done by the numbers, they share a common property or so.  Only thing I found is that you can form twins that end on a zero.

1160, 123, 51, 149, 186, 1021, 101, 67, 1184, 1157.

1160
123+67
51+149
186+1184
1021+149
101+149
1157+123
All end on a zero, which is intriguing but doesn't really help.

Next problem is that the aswer should be four letters.  this can mean two things:
A) After you did what you had to do with the letters only four letters remain.
B) It's a question and the answer is four letters, for example "Who is the best problem solver on Perplexus".  Hmmm, a name with 4 letters?
