"it has only 3 9s in each digit representation. .."

Really? Even the representation for 1?

# re: 9's Clock!

its a wonderful and logical. but i cant' understand the figure 9 o clock what actually written. could you tell me the actual one. pleases

regards

# re: 9's Clock!

the representation for 1 is (9/9)^9; it is hard to see because of the glare but having seen this in a store that is what is used.

As for the 9 o clock it is the 9th root of 9^9

Where can this clock be purchased?

This clock was designed by members of the Triple Nine Society, a group for people who score above the 99.9th percentile on standardized intelligence tests. That's why each digit is made up of 3 nines. Their site is at http://www.triplenine.org/

The clock can be purchased at:

OMG it's really easy if we just work our brains! WOW

# re: 9's Clock!

I'm a member of that society, but regardless of that fact, the question was very poorly worded. Though once I saw the first digit, I immediately understood what it meant.

hey i have found one puzzle on this picture that showing the above clock and they ask what is the hidden message in this clock??can any one guess please reply fast

In response to the question about the seven o'clock equation:

The .9 with the bar above it represents repeating .9. In essence, it is .999999, with an infinite number of 9's following. This number is another representation of the number one. There are several mathematical proofs that show the equivalence of .9 repeating to the number one, which can be found by searching for '.9 repeating' in Google. They used this representation of the number one, I assume, to avoid using 9/9 again, and to keep with the theme of using three nines per hour. The '.999 repeating equals 1' thing is kind of a hot topic for internet debates at this point in time, so I'm sure doing a Google search will yield plenty of reading material on the subject.
