By the way, you'll want to see a special on Thursday week (27th) at the usual time. It's a rematch of 5 former professional finalists, part a catch up on what they've been doing since they were competing and part competition

 

Monica travels to the Balearic Islands to find out what 2011 finalist Claire Hutchings is doing seven years on and visits Elly Wentworth, a finalist from two years ago, in Devon, as she starts a brand new job. Marcus dines out at a new restaurant in Tring fronted by Scott Barnard, who competed three years ago and takes a trip to Leeds to see how the competition re-lit 2016 finalist Matt Healey's fire. Gregg makes the journey to the stunning Isle of Skye to see what Scott Davies is up to five years after he appeared on the show.

Bumping for tonight. Finals week. As it's the Chef's Table tonight where the 4 finalists are each responsible for 1 course for 24 chefs, there's no scope for any enigmatic posting. Amongst the 24 are the two from last week - Michael Caines and Paul Ainsworth.

And I bet I’d have got it right this week too

If I had posted that the number of chefs left together with the number of chefs they are cooking makes for perfection I wouldn't expect many people to get that

 

4 + 24 = 28 which is a perfect number. That where the sum of a number's proper divisors comes back to the number itself. 28 is divisble by 1, 2, 4, 7 and 14. 1+2+4+7=28. 6 is the lowest perfect number (1+2+3). The next perfect number is 496. Only 50 have ever been found so far. All of them have been even numbers. Although no odd numbered perfect number has been found, it hasn't been proved that there aren't any.

If you want to know what the 50th perfect number is it's:

2 to the power of 154,465,833 less 2 to the power of 77,232,916. Don't try to work that out as it has 46,498,850 digits in it

Listen you lost me at * if you want to know *

It's quite easy to work out what is the last digit of that perfect number and can be worked out in one's head without using a calculator or computer It's 6.

 

The way to work this out for those interested which is probably no-one :

2*2=4*2*8*2*16*2=32*2=64 - the last digit has a cycle of 4 being 2,4,8,6 and the keeps repeating 2,4,8,6. The first number 154,465,833 if divided by 4 leaves 1, the first in the cycle so 2 to the power of that number ends with 2. The second number if divided by 4 leaves nothing so is the fourth in the cycle, so the power of that number ends with 6. A number ending with 2 less a number ending with 6 results in a number ending with 6.

It's just working out the + and other symbols to do the sums....but Im carp at maths at the best of times 😂😂😂
