Magic of Finding the Hidden Digit

Magic of Finding the Hidden Digit

Follow a few steps, hide any one digit, enter the other three, and the app will reveal the hidden digit.

Method A: Subtract the sum of digits

  1. Think of a 4‑digit number less than 8999. Keep it secret.
  2. Add its digits. Example: 2341 → 2 + 3 + 4 + 1 = 10.
  3. Subtract that sum from your original number. Example: 2341 − 10 = 2331.
  4. Hide one digit from this final result. Enter the other three digits below, in any order.

Enter the three visible digits

Type exactly three digits (0–9). Order doesn’t matter.
Tip: For stage magic, ask the audience to input three digits while hiding one. The app will reveal it instantly.
