Actually, the only number that can be picked that requires the addition of 1, is ONE
Then, there's the mathematical fact that any factor of 9 will have the sum of the digits divisible by 9. 6,561: 6+5+6+1=18. One plus eight is >>>>>> 9.
Since we multiplied by 3 twice, we multiplied by 9.
It's a fun bit, though.

Ends up with 60.
But 2001 is one of my favorite movies.
“Life of Pi” holds my record for most frequently watched, though.
