Here are the number Table
Based on your observation and knowledge, please formulate a hypothesis/conjecture about how the instructor could figure out the numbers (using the comment function). Also, provide some evidence/data to support your hypothesis/conjecture.
Please indicate the applicable tables related to your number.

You have the tables memorized and you narrow down the numbers it can be according to the tables the number is located in.
ReplyDeleteI think its a combination of the following:
ReplyDeleteA. process of elimination
B. A math formula
C. mind reading
Process of elimination. You find out which tables they are in and start eliminating out the numbers that are not in each of the tables the person listed
ReplyDeleteEach table has a pattern and only certain numbers are in each pattern and therefore you can eliminate numbers by asking if your number is in all tables, and not just the first table you come to that has the number.
ReplyDeleteThe certain number is only in certain tables so your memorizing the boxes with the certain numbers in them??????
ReplyDeleteYou would have to have the tables memorized, otherwise you would not ask what tables the number was in.
ReplyDeleteYou can select the right number by arranging the numbers in a certain order and then asking what tables the selected number is in. By asking this question, you can eliminate numbers and choose the right number.
ReplyDeleteI believe that it depends on which specific table the number is on. Not all the tables have the same numbers, and some of the tables have the number twice. Depending upon which tables the number is located in, determines how to calculate which number was chosen.
ReplyDeleteAll the tables have some sort of pattern. So I guess you memorize the patterns. Who knows?!
ReplyDeleteI think it is a combination of process of elimination and some kind of math formula.
ReplyDeleteI think you figured out the number using some type of math formula, but I cannot figure out what the formula is.
ReplyDeleteI think there is some kind of formula he can do in his head that tells him the right number.
ReplyDeleteHe might also have the tables memorized.
In each column, you are able to eliminate a different set of numbers. If the number is in the first set of numbers, you know the number is odd. Process of elimination is being used to discover the number that has been selected.
ReplyDeletefirst, the instructor determines which table the number is in. Numbers can be duplicated in different tables. After figuring out whcih tables the number is in, he uses a mathematical equation to get the end number because each tables number's hold a pattern. It is a process of elimination.
ReplyDeleteI think it has someting to do with the alignment of the numbers. The begining number in each section was multiplied by 2.
ReplyDeleteI think that there is some kind of pattern in each table and you can elimate the numbers based on the first table and whether or not the number is in the first table. The first table has only odd numbers and ends in odd numbers. So there has to be some kind of formula to memorize.
ReplyDeleteBy a process of elimination combined with a math equation known only by the instructor.
ReplyDeleteMy hypothesis is that you are using the way the table is set up. Each line in all of the tables correlate with each other. For example, row one of each table is the sum of the first number plus its self, 1+1=2; 2 is the the first number for the second row and so on. So it has something to do with the pattern.
ReplyDeleteIn the 0-127 table the beginning numbers are double the previous table. Also there is a pattern of addition of a number. For example, 5,6,7, then add 5, and the next series of numbers is 12,13,14 and so on. So it is all a set of patterns and elimination of numbers from the table.
