In the maths world you can take 7 from 6 to leave -1 then 7 from -1 to leave -8...... But in the real world you can't take 7 apples from 6 apples. Both worlds are as different as on line poker and live poker. The problem looks the same but how you go about solving them are as different as chalk and cheese

Maths Quiz:

How many times can you subtract 7 from 83, and what is left afterwards?

Trick question? 11 and 6. There may be more to this but i start from the most recent post and work back, probs not the most optimum of strategy.

No trick, but your answer is wrong.

Ok, ok. i get you then. 76 and as many times as i god damn want.

Often bought what was meant to be 7 apples off him but it always turns out to be 6 apples. I have run out of scores ATM because he has borrowed em all. But to be fair he gave me a lift from Dtd to scunny one night which is 40 mile past Sheffield so that guy owes me nothing.

Saying nothing wrong about Barry, but if anyone could get 7 apples from 6....

Maths Quiz:

Once.

After you take the first 7 away, you don't have 83 any more, you have 76.
