Kinda reminds me of a pattern I had noticed in primary school

When you multiply a number by itself... it's always one more than the multiplication of the preceding number with the receding number i.e.
9*9 = 81 and 10 * 8 = 80 the difference was 1
8*8 =64 and 9 * 7= 63 i.e. the difference was 1
7*7 =49 and 8 * 6= 48 i.e. the difference was 1
6*6 =36 and 7 * 5= 35 i.e. the difference was 1
5*5 =25 and 6 * 4= 24 i.e. the difference was 1
4*4 =16 and 5 * 3= 15 i.e. the difference was 1
3*3 =9 and 4 * 2= 8 i.e. the difference was 1

only for later to discover that it was a simple algebraic equation..

Dedan Kimathi is a proper University with facilities and qualified staff.

If you are a real welder [people can make up stuff online] you would know they have some of the best equipped labs - Engineering especially.

Disclaimer: Not an alumni (I'm too old to be one!) or interested party. But I have visited their facilities including the ADMAT lab (or something like that) which houses some of their Engineering labs.

Unless things changed while I was away.....

8 is 8 and is NOT equal to 56!
7 is 7 and is NOT equal to 42!
6 is 6 and is NOT equal to 30!
5 is 5 and is NOT equal to 20!

Therefore

3 is 3 and CANNOT be equal to anything else apart from 3.

The person who created this has never been to a math class!
