    I'm wrong! The answer is not nine every time. I got 6!!

    I chose 2.69 (a number from 1 to 9) x 3 = 8.01 + 3 + = 11.01 x 3 = 33.03
    3+3=6

    Funny, I tried this and got #6; The Good, The Bad and the Ugly as well. It seems like that must always be the answer.

    I chose 3.999999999999

    FAIL. The two digits summed in point five could be 9 + 9 and since there's no 18 on the list of movies, this will not work.
    I'd like to know what kind of math you used.
    I wish I was as fortunate, as fortunate as me.

    That is what I always loved about the symmetry of the nines:
    9 x 1 = 09 -- 0+9=9
    9 x 2 = 18 -- 1+8=9
    9 x 3 = 27 -- etc...
    9 x 4 = 36
    9 x 5 = 45
    9 x 6 = 54
    9 x 7 = 63
    9 x 8 = 72
    9 x 9 = 81
    9 x 10 = 90
    ...
    9 x 11 = 99 -- 9+9=18
    9 x 12 = 108 -- 10+8=18
    9 x 13 = 117 -- 11+7=18
    9 x 14 = 126 -- etc...
    9 x 15 = 135
    9 x 16 = 144
    9 x 17 = 153
    9 x 18 = 162
    9 x 19 = 171
    9 x 20 = 180
    ...
    9 x 21 = 189 -- 18+9=27
    9 x 22 = 198 -- 19+8=27
    9 x 23 = 207 -- 20+7=27
    etc...
