but it could also be 3.

D is 8, 10, or 12, right?

No, D can be 9 or 3.

No. D is the one that is 3 or 9. C is 9.

Wait. C is 9.

Was confused.

So has anyone tried the 310-933-XXXX solution using 3 or 9 for D?

u = a/b-c
v = d^2*e+f

that gives you the last 4 digits of the phone #, right?

C is 9.

If
U= a/b-c =
Then
38/2-9 = 10 part is right.

My avatar is a pic of me. My friend reached over and grabbed my breast right as the picture was shot. hehe

fine. so then I'm going to be extra quiet either because I need a break from this and it's frustrating to sort thru the cluttered mess of confusion you are all are creating...

or I was right and figured out the correct VM # after trying a few things just now...

apparently right after someone else did too.

thanks to Deagol for the heavy lifting that got us on the right track!

It's solved now.

Captious, we just solved the puzzle and By filling in E=10 we got the right number.

Captious · Post by **Captious** » Thu Nov 16, 2006 2:58 pm

I posted this before that. I wasn't saying E= 8. Just that we couldn't rule out 8 based on what we had. And we couldn't until the math was run.
