mjmooney Posted November 26, 2009 VT Supporter Share Posted November 26, 2009 Una's Tits are two towers of basalt, each topped by a cap of ice, that guard the entrance to the Lemaire Channel on the Antarctic Peninsula. They are officially named "Una's Tits", and they are identified by this name on navigation charts. They appear on a British Antarctic Territory stamp although they are not identified as such. Una was a young woman living on the Falkland Islands who would greet British Antarctic Survey personnel (who were all male at the time) on their return from wintering over in Antarctica.

The_Rev Posted November 26, 2009 Share Posted November 26, 2009 Any number who's sum of digits equals nine is in the nine times table. It stands to reason. 1 * 9 = 9 = 0+9 = 9 2 * 9 = 18 = 1+8 = 9 3 * 9 = 27 = 2+7 = 9 4 * 9 = 36 = 3+6 = 9 One of the few things I can still remember from school!

AVFCLaura Posted November 26, 2009 Share Posted November 26, 2009 Practically any number whose sum of the digits involved equals 9 will be divisible exactly by 9. Your practically denotes that not every number does - so I tried to find some that don't and couldn't. Are there any that don't? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Stevo985 Posted November 26, 2009 VT Supporter Share Posted November 26, 2009 That works with 3 too...obviously as it's the square root of 9. Actually no, I'm wrong. With 3 it's if the sum of the digits add up to something that is divisible by 3, then the wholenumber is divisible by 3. So, 477 = 4+7+7 = 18 which is divisible by 3, so 477 is also divisible by 3.

I actually think on second thoughts the practically was unneccesary covering my arse for pedants. And yes Rev I remember it from the 9 times table but for some reason I assumed it only worked upto 10, turns out it works for any multiple of 9 unless it's a multiple of 11 (i.e. 9x11, 9x22, 9x33, etc).

roonst83 Posted November 26, 2009 Share Posted November 26, 2009 That works with 3 too...obviously as it's the square root of 9. :?: Unless im missing something... it doesnt though... 3 x 9 = 27. (2+7=9..not 3??) 3 x 8 = 24. (2+4=6..not 3??) 3 x 11 = 33. (3+3=6..not 3??) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
