May be one for Marco to try ;)

anyone can have a go :)
Your favourite film is discovered……………
This is pretty amazing. Mine turned out to be 'Raiders of the Lost Ark'.

I was surprised how this worked. Be honest and don't look at the movie list until you have done the test.

Try it and find out which movie is your favourite. This amazing maths quiz will predict which of 18 films you would enjoy the most.

Don't ask me how, but it really works!
So to the Movie Test:-

Pick a number from 1 to 9.

Multiply by 3.

Add 3.

Multiply by 3 again.

Now add the two digits together to find your predicted favourite movie in the list of 18 movies below.











Movie List:-

1. Gone With The Wind
2. E.T.
3. Beverly Hills Cop
4. Star Wars
5. Forrest Gump
6. The Good, The Bad, and the Ugly
7. Jaws
8. Grease
9. The Joy of Anal Sex With A Sheep
10. Casablanca
11. Jurassic Park
12. Shrek
13. Pirates of the Caribbean
14. Titanic
15. Raiders Of The Lost Ark
16. Home Alone
17. Mrs. Doubtfire
18. Toy Story

Now, how about that....?

I'm afraid, as a bean counter trained to spot transposed numbers, like the gypsy with the crystal balls, I could see what was coming... ;)

Let your chosen number be n, then following the instructions we end up with 3(3n + 3) = 9n + 9 = 9(n + 1). So for any value of n, 9(n + 1) equals a multiple of 9.

All multiples of 9 have the property that the digits of that number when added together equal 9. Thus, for example: 34 x 9 = 306, 3 + 0 + 6 = 9.

For the record, its actually a dogs ear. it is just surprising how close ups of everyday, normal things allows the mind to decide on something completely different. No offence was meant.
