well i still think by using the method called fractinal distillation
1/36 (one thirty-sixth)
there would be many equations... here are three 995+1=996 1992/2=996 1000-4=996
996
565 + 996 = 1561
996 * 31 = 30,876
60% of 996 is 597.6
996 x 32 = 31872
18.7925
166
996 g = 2.196 pounds.
0996 = 996 = 996/1 as a fraction.
