Math mind bender!!!

Ok I am either stupid or this is too hard...

How do you derive the following relationship between the following numbers using the same equation with the only variable being the first number.

10 = 1
8 = 10
6 = 100
4 = 1000
2 = 10000

The only number that can change in the equation is the first one given above (10, 8, 6, 4, 2).

Oh I think someone else got it for me...

Its not perfect but it works... 100,000 * 0.31623^x

I just floor it to get the value I need.

Oh even better, its the recipricol of the square root of 10 to the power of x times 100,000

100000 * (1/sqrt 10)^10
100000 * (1/sqrt 10)^8
100000 * (1/sqrt 10)^6
100000 * (1/sqrt 10)^4
100000 * (1/sqrt 10)^2

woot.

Yea but when you need to parse MGRS references it helps to be able to tell wtf you need to multiply it to get the 10 digit reference.

10 does not equal one. Please check your equation.
