Elementary maths
It was a particularly tough episode of Letters And Numbers on SBS today.
And no, this image wasn’t Photoshopped. The random number generator challenged the contestants to use the six numbers available to them to make 150.
Luckily the marvellous Lily Serna was on hand to explain to the viewers how it was done.
Damnit, because 2+1 * 50 would’ve also worked.
Love this show.
haha yes it was quite funny..I do love this show…only the ABC could produce such a simple compelling program. 🙂
oh and yes I have since the french version…it was tres more glitzy..
100+50+9-7-2×1
Easy
Brilliant! I have a nerd crush on Lily Serna…
…it’s on SBS…
Sadly, I too love this show. I was thinking along the lines of (50/2) * (7-1) = 150. Or trying to use all the numbers … (100 * 2) – (50 * (9-7-1)).
Sounds like it was a particularly tough day in the Mumbrella office, too, if you were watching this 🙂
Hi Gavin,
I must confess to an early sneakaway yesterday.
There’s no greater satisfaction to be derived than being home in time for Letters & Numbers…

Letters and Numbers (Numberwang) is the ONLY must watch show on TV for me right now. Lily should claim next years Gold Logie now.

Now we DO need a media enquiry. Bugger concerns about Gina Reinhart … this is getting serious!
We need to gather in Bay 13 at the MCG and start the “Lily!” chant going.
