Geocache Description:


BASIC MATHS

This is a number puzzle. Here are some given values:

1 = 3        11 = 6        100 = 10

2 = 3        12 = 6        105 = 14

 

To find the cache, you’ll have to solve the following puzzle equations.

A = 182 B = 37  C = 3784
D = 29 E = 77 F = 38
G = 47 H = 70 I = 8070
J = 6  K = 5  

 

X1 = J / G + (B + 2)/ I + I / D

X2 = C – A – D

X3 = (0 + H) + E

X4 = D + H - E

X5 = C/7 + D

X6 = E + F - 17

X7 = G*4 + H*2

X8 = [(I * 2) - 1] /J

X9 = (C – 8)/(A+F)

X10 = [ (J + 1)*K ] /2


Plug the whole number you get from [X1][X2][X3][X4][X5][X6][X7][X8][X9][X10] into the checker to reveal the GZ coordinates.

IMPORTANT NOTICE: Phytophthora cinnamomi, also known as cinnamon fungus, is a serious plant disease that destroys many native plants. It is present in the Warby Range section of the park. To help prevent the spread of the disease, avoid walking and driving in wet areas. Clean camping gear and boots (recommended cleaner: 1 part bleach, 3 part water) before leaving the site. For further information on Phytophthora visit www.parks.vic.gov.au
