This math riddle presents an equation that seems incorrect at first glance: 81 multiplied by 9 equals 801. However, there’s a clever twist to it.
To make the equation true, you must change one of the digits in the result. Specifically, you can change the 8 in 801 to a 7, resulting in 701. This gives us:
81 x 9 = 729
So, to adjust the equation properly, the answer lies in realizing that the original product of 81 and 9 is actually 729, not 801. By recognizing this discrepancy, we can conclude that adjusting the result by changing one digit aligns the equation correctly.
