Puzzles!
by Chrissy on Sat Oct 11, 2008 2:35 pm
So, My Math Teacher gave us some puzzles today, so I thought it'd be fun to post a few!
So.. Tell me How this Puzzle works, And the next line, proving it. If you need a hint, I will wait until 3 people say "Hint Please!" In their post, or something indicating a hint, and then I'll post the hint. Don't cheat! D:

The thought brought tears to her eyes and she quickly brushed them away with the sleeve of her pajamas. She grimaced, “He was showing me how to.. build a sandcastle..” she whispered.

Not too sure if this counts and a forum game, maybe it's a Zonko's thing.

Okay I sort of understand.
The sum of each row
From top to bottom;
1 = 1
2 = 1, 1
4 = 2, 1, 1
6 = 1, 2, 2, 1
8 = 1, 1, 2, 2, 1, 1
10 = 2, 1, 2, 2, 2, 1
12 = 1, 2, 1, 1, 3, 2, 1, 1
18 = 1, 1, 1, 2, 2, 1, 1, 3, 1, 2, 2, 1
23 = 3, 1, 2, 2, 2, 1, 1, 3, 1, 1, 2, 2, 1, 1
Ugh... The 18 and the 23 messes me up. -.-; I'll try again later.

ugh it's too difficult to explain, but suffice to say that each line says what was in the previous. Except the beginning which was a little odd.
Um...I'm thinking the next line would be...
1311322113212221
see there's one 3 (13), one 1 (11), three 2s (32), two 1s (21), one 3 (13), two 1s (21), two 2s (22), and two 1s (21)
Makes sense?
