0 Molly Mae Posted December 31, 2013 Report Share Posted December 31, 2013 Never. You will never have consecutive 7's. Unless you break the seconds down into many significant digits (minimum 5), you can't spell the word hELLO. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

0 BobbyGo Posted January 22, 2014 Report Share Posted January 22, 2014 (edited) For your third set (the one beginning in 2,0), I count 30 times instead of 60. Also, I had 300 for the last one because any digit 0-9 could be in the rightmost seconds column during any of the valid hELLO times (and should count as separate times).

Do the hours also do that sometimes? I think the mechanics of it all should be explained. the mechanics is like .. you invert the clock then cut out the word hELLO from a cardboard then place it in front of the clock. Start counting till 150 times its fills the word hELLO then move the cardboard left for the 4th set of 30 or (300 times for 1 second greet).

0 Brainy Binary Posted January 26, 2014 Report Share Posted January 26, 2014 gt.jpg The OP ask how many times not how many seconds.Some hELLO last 1 second some 2 seconds and 10 seconds. I got 40+40+20+30=130 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
