Mathematical Quirk Answers
1) Add the digits 6 + 7 + 5 to get 18 and then add those digits to get 9. This is known as the power of 9 where any time you multiply a number by 9 and keep adding the digits, you get 9 again at some point.
2) Add the digits 2 + 4 + 7 + 5 to get 18 and then add those digits to get 9. This is known as the power of 9 where any time you multiply a number by 9 and keep adding the digits, you get 9 again at some point.
3) Kaprekar’s Constant is 6174 which is a number you will reach in 7 steps or less each time when you take any 4-digit number with at least 2 different digits and repeat the process of ascending and descending order. For 9485, the number 6174 is reached in 5 steps.
4) Kaprekar’s Constant is 6174 which is a number you will reach in 7 steps or less each time when you take any 4-digit number with at least 2 different digits and repeat the process of ascending and descending order. For 3745, the number 6174 is reached in 7 steps.
5) If you divide 111 by the sum of its digits and 222 by the sum of its digits you get to 37. This works for any three-digit number where all 3 digits are the same.
6) If you divide 444 by the sum of its digits and 555 by the sum of its digits you get to 37. This works for any three-digit number where all 3 digits are the same.
7) Any 3-digit number written twice to make a 6-digit number will always be exactly divisible by 7, 11, and 13 without any remainder.

Welcome students. I bring to you a very simple class. My name is Professor Burbage.
You’ve all been amongst Muggles for a while now and still live amongst them. However, there are some wizards who haven’t been amongst Muggles for years now. One such person is with us today. Please welcome Arthur Weasley.
Arthur has a very simple question for all of you. What is the purpose of a slinky?
You will submit a maximum 500-word response to this very simple question as a House. This means I want only 4 responses – one from each House. Only the Head Girl needs to PM me or, if they are busy, any 1 member from each House.
I will grade each response out of 3000 points – 1000 points for creativity, 1000 points for originality, and 1000 points for how well you answer the question without sounding condescending or rude. If you use AI for this round, it will lead to an automatic 0 overall for this round. There will a second grader who will also grade this round out of 3000 points similar to above, but if I mark it 0 for AI then that person won't be grading.
Note that this time around the score will be added to only the House score!
The deadline for this submission is May 8 11:59 PM IST.
Sorry sorry just cleared. I got logged out and my credentials weren’t working for couple of days now. I’m in now!
Perfect. I'll send you PM from now on. No worries for Round 1. I added an average to your house's score.
