![]() ![]() I'm also having trouble seeing the pattern (or patterns) in the numbers with four representatives. I'm having trouble accounting for why 16 and 36 have three representatives. 4 and 9 make sense to me, as they are squares within the basic range of the times table, so they are hit by themselves, their square root, and 1. The four with 3 are the remaining squares - 4, 9, 16, and 36. The 23 numbers with 2 instances are kind of the default I guess. ![]() This makes sense - squares don't fall into that 4x5 = 5x4 redundancy. The six numbers that have only 1 instance are all squares - those of 1, 5, 7, 8, 9, and 10. They all have either 1, 2, 3, or 4 instances. I feel like the number 42 should be calculable from the natural log of 100 and 10, or something, but I can't really figure it out.Īlso, I counted the frequency of all the numbers represented. I couldn't figure out a satisfying reason like that for 75, 84, 96 and 98. I had to wonder, why 42? I counted the 58 non-listed numbers - most of them are either primes >10 or multiples of those primes. There are 42 out of a possible 100 numbers represented. I was looking at a 10x10 multiplication table, and I decided to count the unique products. ![]()
