Mathematics, Numbers, and The Symmetry of God

The essence of mathematics is not to make simple things complicated, but to make complicated things simple. ~ S.
Gudder Indeed mathematics is a domain where brains get rankled and minds seem to lose their grips on reality.
Yet in this seemingly mad world, simplicity metamorphoses from complexity; normality evolves from irrationality, and order blossoms from chaos.
If you doubt these propositions, then observe the bizarre symmetry in the following numerical calculations, and then see whether you are still skeptical that God does in fact indwell numbers and mathematics.

Observe the following symmetries and enjoy! 1 x 8 + 1 = 9 12 x 8 + 2 = 98 123 x 8 + 3 = 987 1234 x 8 + 4 = 9876 12345 x 8 + 5 = 987 65 123456 x 8 + 6 = 987654 1234567 x 8 + 7 = 9876543 12345678 x 8 + 8 = 98765432 123456789 x 8 + 9 = 987654321 And now with the number 9: 1 x 9 + 2 = 11 12 x 9 + 3 = 111 123 x 9 + 4 = 1111 1234 x 9 + 5 = 11111 12345 x 9 + 6 = 111111 123456 x 9 + 7 = 1111111 1234567 x 9 + 8 = 11111111 12345678 x 9 + 9 = 111111111 123456789 x 9 +10= 1111111111 But the number 9 has even more magic to it.
To wit: 9 x 9 + 7 = 88 98 x 9 + 6 = 888 987 x 9 + 5 = 8888 9876 x 9 + 4 = 88888 98765 x 9 + 3 = 888888 987654 x 9 + 2 = 8888888 9876543 x 9 + 1 = 88888888 98765432 x 9 + 0 = 888888888 The number 1 is one of the five most important numbers in mathematics.
Not only is 1 the multiplicative identity, the number 1 dazzles us with some amazing multiplicative properties as seen in these repunits (a repunit is a number composed of all 1's): 1 x 1 = 1 11 x 11 = 121 111 x 111 = 12321 1111 x 1111 = 1234321 11111 x 11111 = 123454321 111111 x 111111 = 12345654321 1111111 x 1111111 = 1234567654321 11111111 x 11111111 = 123456787654321 111111111 x 111111111 = 12345678987654321 After witnessing this array of number wizardry, it is hard to imagine that a supreme deity could not be supervising such magic.
Maybe if teachers implemented a little symmetric razzmatazz like this to start a class, students might perk up and listen for a change. Then true learning would have a shot at beginning and all kinds of positive results could be achieved.

After all, when God is in charge, everything else goes smoothly.

Try it out and have fun.
