    Why wud there be differnt symbols for the same number....

    ^there could........in math there might be something like x=2, y=2 what is x+y?...

    They wouldnt give two different symbols for the same number
    otherwise the concepts of x and y would be very annoyingly confusing

    ^ but your solution:

    XI + I = X
    X=infinity? I= any number in the world xcept 0

    wouldn't that still be known as "infinity plus another number", w/e man whichever answer's right then lol...

    LOL yea peace mate all gud
    i was jst thinkin like
    infinity* lets say 2 + 2= would still equal infinity?
    yea i dunno... waiting to know if my answer was correct LOL

    nope

    nope

    horseracing question is correct! the other one is incorrect!

    wtf? incorrect anyways lol

    CORRECT!!!!! How did you know?

    Time to add some more questions to give others more chances :D

    I should be flattered that I am part of the ultimate challenge right??? -detect

    I am forever in debt to Taxloss for thinking that it was quoted from Greg House -tongue2

    lol.. that statement is so 'hiake'... haha

    fun thread.. more qns!

    and to #2: the equation is correct as long as X not equal to -1, I not equal to 1.

    Both variable is 0? I am simply distracted by the Roman numerals.

    more questions will come after I'm done with playing with my band lol

    but your answer is incorrect...(you'll notice it if you fill them in with numbers other then 1, -1.. they still will be incorrect)

    hm... I can't say you're incorrect since 0 will be mathematical correct... but this isn't actually what I was looking for....

    HINT: its more of an IQ question rather than a math question

    I think you need to make it clear by "without changing anything".

    Once you said this was an equation, its already implied that the answer would be somewhat mathematical.

    ok.. that clears one doubt then.. if it is IQ qn. cos if its mathematical, where X and I are variables, then it should be a graph made of two curves (looks kinda like a tiled X) which lead to infinity when X=-1 and I=-1. so the equation can give a finite number for any value of X and I as long as they are not those two numbers.

    as for 2nd attempt.. thinking abt it.. qn seems vague to me.. and it better not be a lame ans.

    Uh oh, chi_man is in trouble... There's one highly anticipated answer we are looking for -devil

    Iq question eh? SO that 0.5 and 1 is wrong too...hmmm I bet it's not something to do with maths

    In the past people were moving the XI to the other side to make it like this:
    I = X - XI

    but this is not allowed, just leave it like:
    XI + I = X

    well not really, the answer does deal with math... but not that much with variables and filling in numbers etc...

    haha :p I think you'll be disappointed since it will most likely to be a lame answer to you after thinking so hard with numbers lol -lol

    Im not really in trouble lolz :D

    it does have to do with math since you need to make the equation correct... but not by filling in numbers and stuff,, just dont think too deep and pretend to be smart with all those numbers lol


    going to add questions now since I've just arrived at home :D

    lol.. let me guess.. this is one of those matchstick games..
    change the equation from XI + I = X to IX + I = X by moving the first I from behind X to in front of X.

    technically speaking.. then the qn will have been poorly phrased since this will have changed the equation.. but thats the closest i can guess.. plus some help.. haha -tongue2

    lol.. for #2 is it that u flip the whole equation upside down so u get X = I + IX instead? (as in rotating the line 180 degrees...) hehh..
