if Billy were to press one number key, one operation key, then...........what are the chances the answer comes out to 6?

Little Billy has a calculator with 15 buttons. He has 10 keys for 0-9, a key for addition, multiplication, division, and subtraction. Finally, he has an = sign. However, Mark the Meanie messed up the programming on Billy's calculator. Now, whenever Billy presses any of the number keys, it comes up with a random single-digit number. The same goes for the four operations keys (+,-,x, /). So whenever Billy tries to press the + button, the calculator chooses randomly between addition, multiplication, subtraction, and division. The only key left untouched was the = sign.

Now, if Billy were to press one number key, one operation key, then another number key, then the = button, what are the chances the answer comes out to 6?

What sequence of keys did you press on the security system to get into the building?

You are a spy trying to gain access to a high profile building that contains very classified information. The only thing standing between you and those secrets is a keypunch security system containing the digits 1-9 that will open the door to the building. Your spy agency has provided you details about the order of the keys you need to enter:

  1. Each digit is pressed once and only once.
  2. No two consecutive digits are pressed consecutively.
  3. The digits 2 and 4 are pressed 2nd and 4th in some order; the digits 6 and 8 are pressed 6th and 8th in some order.
  4. The sum of the first 5 digits pressed is 19; the sum of the last 5 digits pressed is 27.

As you wonder why your agency couldn't just write down the sequence for you, you crack the code and enter the building.
