ugh, math problems are the WORST 
i mean dont get me wrong i love a good brain teaser as much as the next person but these numerical challenges gotta be kidding me... six 1s and five 9s? that's like asking me to solve a pi(e) problem 
but seriously tho, im down to give it a shot... my first attempt would prob be something like (1+1+11) x (1+1+11) = 26 
or maybe i'd try to get fancy and use some exponentiation 
but what really gets me is that there's gotta be more than one way to solve this thing... cant we just have a calculator
like the rest of us? anyhoo, if you got a solution send it my way... i'd love to see what other people come up with

. The idea of using different combinations of numbers and math ops to get the same result is like, soooo satisfying 
. And omg, I'm dying to know what kind of crazy solutions the puzzle master has come up with...I mean, a partridge in a pair tree? 
. Anyone else down to give it a try?
. u know who's gonna crush it? those whiz kids on reddit r/math 
. btw, i'm lowkey curious about that partridge in a pair tree thingy 
... is it even solvable or wut 
?
