how about a guessing game?

[Sara Sidereal]

no

 

[Leon The Needled Riolu]

So 4 8 8?

 

[Sara Sidereal]

yes

 

[Leon The Needled Riolu]

16 32 32?

 

[Sara Sidereal]

yes

You know B is always at least equal to A and C, and that A and C are factors of B. Sometimes your test fails when B is strictly larger than (in other words, not equal to) A and C, but not always. Most of your tests have involved either A or B being equal to C (or its opposite). Your tests always fail when B is negative.

Also: just noticed most of your tests have A being a factor of C or vice versa.

I am not without mercy. You have been resurrected if you still wish to play.

Noted. I think I'll try some more with this information.

4, 8, 2

3, 12, 4

-3, 9, -9

 

[Sara Sidereal]

no
yes
yes

 

[Leon The Needled Riolu]

Hm.
3 6 2?

 

[Redfork2000]

Ok, so B does not need to have the same absolute value as A or C. Interesting. Now I need to figure out why triplets like "4, 8, 2" don't work.

5, 20, 4

1, 8, 4

-2, 10, 5

 

[Sara Sidereal]

Leon The Needled Riolu
yes
Redfork2000
yes
no
yes

 

[Leon The Needled Riolu]

8 16 2?

 

[Redfork2000]

Ok. So now to figure out why "1, 8, 2" doesn't work. I feel like I'm getting close, but I feel there's still something I haven't quite discovered yet.

8, 40, 5

4, 36, 18

10, 100, 50

 

[Sara Sidereal]

no
yes
yes
no

 

[Redfork2000]

Ok, something is going on when either A or C is a factor of the other but neither has the same absolute value of B. I know there's something much simpler I am probably overlooking, but I don't manage to see it yet.

6, 24, 4

6, 24, 12

6, 24, 3

 

[Sara Sidereal]

no
no
no

 

[Redfork2000]

Ok, I'm definitely missing something here.

5, 30, 6

7, 28, 4

9, 36, 18

 

[Sara Sidereal]

yes
yes
no

 

[Leon The Needled Riolu]

I think it's multiplication, Red Fork.

 

[Redfork2000]

No, because it doesn't always work like that. Watch:

2, 4, 4

9, 9, 9

6, 42, 7

 

[Sara Sidereal]

yes
yes
yes

 

[Leon The Needled Riolu]

Weird.

 

[Bloody_Death]

It's a weird puzzle lol

6, 24, 1

6, 24, 2

4, 24, 6

 

[Sara Sidereal]

no
no
no

 

[Bloody_Death]

6, 24, 6

6, 24, 8

6, 24, 24

 

[Lone Star II]

I have one question. It's not exactly a guess, but does it have to do with factors?
