No.
(x + 6)/2 - x = 3
-.5x + 3 = 3
x = 0
In other words: "Pick a number any number"? Nope. "Pick a number any number as long as it's zero"? Yes. Sorry dude you said it wrong its: 1.Pick any number 1-10(example, it can be any whole number) 2.Then double it (x times 2) 3. Then add 6(or any number as long as it is an even number) 4. Then divide by 2 5. Finaly subtract the number you started with 6 And the answer is 3(or half of whatever number you pick for step 3)

Sediments can be picked up by wind, and water.
In your lungs.
If you picked it up and threw it at someone, yes.
The scruff.... I picked him up by the 'scruff' of the neck

To do this trick: 1. Ask your victim to pick any number they want and to keep it to themself. 2.Tell them to multiply it by two. 3. Tell them to add an even number of your choice [2,4,6,8,etc]. 4. Now tell them to divide it into two. 5. Tell them to subtract the number that they picked in the begining. Their answer will be half the even number you picked in step three
An easy way to do this is to manipulate the original number and make sure to "undue" all the manipulations you did. For example: pick any number, add 3, subtract 2, subtract the number you started with, you have 1. Example explained: x + 3 - 2 - x = 1. More complex example: pick any number, multiply by 2, add 4, subtract 2, divide by 2, subtract 2, add 4, subtract the number you started with, you have 3. Explained: (((x * 2) + 4 - 2) / 2) - 2 + 4 - x = (2x + 2) / 2 + 2 = x + 3 - x = 3.
For the numbers 1 thru 9, the result is always 5. In fact, the result is 5 for any integer, and if you change the wording slightly to say 'add this to the original number plus 1' instead of 'add this to the next higher number' the result is 5 for ANY complex number. Here's why: Number picked: x Next higher number (for integers) or Number picked plus 1 (for any other sort of number): x + 1 Add them: x + x + 1 = 2x + 1 Add 9: 2x + 1 + 9 = 2x + 10 Divide by 2: x + 5 Subtract starting number: x + 5 - x = 5.

Pr(Both picked 3) = 1/16Pr(Both picked the same) = 1/4.

Assuming then that there are 100 numbers, 1-100, the probability of the number 23 being randomly picked out of 100 is: 1/100 or 0.01.
Since 49 is a composite, the answer is 0.
That is a number picked without any thought.
What is the probability that the letter P is picked when a letter is picked at random from the word STUPID!
It depends who's doing the picking. I have picked, you have picked, they have picked, we have picked; but he / she / someone (named) / something has picked.
