Can anyone explain this “magic trick”/illusion? I see that somethings strange but i can’t figure it out.

9
notice that 00, 9, 18, 27, 36, 45, 54, 63, 72, 81, 90, 99
are all the multiples of “9″ …
99, 90 and 00 will never be the result of subtracting the sum of the digits of a two-digit number from that 2-digit number.
9, 18, 27, 36, 45, 54, 63, 72, 81 all have identical symbols associated with them …
“In modulus 9, the sum of the digits of a integer *equal* that number [mod 9] ”
sketch of a proof:
8437 = 8*10^3 + 4*10^2 + 3*10^1 +7*10^0
10 = 9+1
8437 = 8*(9+1)^3 + 4*(9+1)^2 + 3*(9+1)^1 +7*(9+1)^0
as example:
(9+1)^3 =C(3,0) (9^3)(*1^0) + C(3,1) (9^2)(*1^1)
+ C(3,2) (9^1)(*1^2) + C(3,3) (9^0)(*1^3
[where C(n,k) = n!/((k!)*(n-k)!)
sheesh, gettting very complicated iin notastion here …
main point is that the “remainder” of
8*(9+1)^3 when divided by 9 is equal to “8″ since all the other terms in the expansion are divisible by 9, thus having “0″ remainder .. and the “last term” of 1 * 8 = 8.
sooooooooooo ….
doing allthe “adding digits and subrtaacting the sum will ALWAYS yield a multple of “9″.
eg 83 - (8 + 3) = 83 - 11 = 72 ..and 72 = 9*8 .. and has
the same symbol as 9, 18, 27 … 81

ha, check out the symbols for 9, 18, 27, 36, 45 and multiples of 9. they are same… co-incidence…… i don’t think so. guess you got the answer for the illusion. if not let me know

it’s just math.
any 2 digit number that you choose, you will arrive at an answer divisible by 9.

What is happening here is the following. You pick a two digit number. Let x be the first digit and y the second.
THen the number is 10 * x + y. Now you subtract x and y from that and you will get 10 * x + y - y - x = 9x.
So, the answer will be a multiple of 9 no matter what. If you look at the list of answers, every mulitple of 9 has the same value and the “crystal ball” gives the symbol associated with 9, 18, 27 . . .
