T-Total 1. Here is a 9 by 9 grid. 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 10 11 12 13 14 15 16 17 18 19 20 21 22 23 24 25 26 27 28 29 30 31 32 33 34 35 36 37 38 39 40 41 42 43 44 45 46 47 48 49 50 51 52 53 54 55 56 57 58 59 60 61 62 63 64 65 66 67 68 69 70 71 72 73 74 75 76 77 78 79 80 81 The total of the numbers within the T shape is 1+2+3+11+20=37 I will call this the T-total. T would represent this. The 20 at the bottom of the T shape will be called the T-Number. N would represent this. 1 2 3 11 20 Here is the T shape by itself. As you can see the middle column is going down in 9's because the grid size is 9 by 9. N-19 N-18 N-17 N-9 N Here is a converted version of the original. This is so I can work out a formula to find the T-total on a 9 by 9 grid. T = N-19+N-18+N-17+N-9+N T = 5N-63 Time for me to check if this formula works: N means T-Number. N = 20 T = 5x20-63 T = 100-63 T = 37 To make sure it is not a fluke, I will do 2 more checks on the same grid size. 16 17 18 26 35 T = 112 T = 5x35-63 T = 175-63 T = 112 48 49 50 58 67 T = 272 T =...
