0 Rainman Posted September 8, 2012 Report Share Posted September 8, 2012 Since we have 123456789->594168327 for two steps, we can get to 5th step by applying the same mapping again. 594168327->671582493. Now we have 671582493->369741258 for one step and we can complete the list using this mapping. 1st step: 123456789 2nd step: 918273645 3rd step: 594168327 4th step: 752934816 5th step: 671582493 6th step: 369741258 7th step: 835629174 8th step: 487315962 9th step: 246897531 10th step: 123456789 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
