This will boggle your mind... Take your time and follow the instructions.
After reading each window click on the boy in the lower right corner .In the last window type in your numbers in the white box .
Use the keyboard ( there is NO curser )
You will be amazed....and no, I don't know how it's done ..

I wonder if everyone picks the same number. That was strange!

It worked for me, as well.
The direction are easy to follow, but sometimes easy directions aren't the easiest to follow the first or second time through; because of that, it didn't work the first couple times.
this is fun

Just one of the many quirks of mathematics, like how everything multiplied by nine equals to nine. For instance, what's 9 x 5? 45 right? Ok, now add the 4 and the 5. You could do this with any number and it will always come back to nine. Here's another one: 9 x 53284 = 479556. 4 + 7 + 9 + 5 + 5 + 6 = 36. But 3 + 6 is 9! I discovered this for myself many years ago but I'm sure many others knew about it before me.
BTW, just because I stated that "it's just one of the many quirks of mathematics" doesn't mean I know how Fido figured out the number I circled. Oddly enough, the number I circled happened to be a nine.

Yup, everything multiplied by nine equals to nine. I believe this was mentioned to me in elementary school.
Other number patterns are interesting, too.

I tried this with several numbers. My original one was 7707. I scrambled that to get 7770. The difference is 63, a multiple of nine. No matter what number you choose, the difference will be a multiple of nine. And as abajan said, there are several tricks that you can do that involve multiples of nine.
It's not magic, just mathgic.
