FUN WITH NUMBERS



I
t may take many steps, but by adding its reverse to any integer (except perhaps one) a palindromic sum can be attained. That is, the sum is the same from right to left as from left to right. Examples:



38 + 83 = 121

139 + 931 = 1070 + 0701
= 1771

48,017 + 71,084 = 119,101

119,101 + 101,911 = 221,012

210,012 + 210,122
= 431,134
