- Start with any 4-digit number containing at least two different digits (i.e. not a multiple of 1111).
- Form a new number by arranging the digits from highest to lowest.
- Reverse this number.
- Subtract step 3 from step 2 to get a new number. If the result has fewer than four digits, pad it with leading zeroes. (e.g. 4321 - 1234 =3087 )
- Go back to step 2 with this number and repeat the process. After enough repetitions, you will eventually reach the magic number: 6174.Example : 30878730 - 0378 = 83528532 -2358 = 6174
Have some Fun !!!
