I tried punching in 243 and it gave me an equation that resolves to 235.

https://www.wolframalpha.com/input?i=%28lim+%28%28x%5E2-100%29%2F%28x%2B10%29%29%2C+x-%3E13%29%5E5+-+%28%5Blim%28%28e%5E%288x%29-1%29%2Fx%29%2C+x-%3E0%5D+-+%5B%5Blim+%28%28x%5E2-36%29%2F%28x-6%29%29%2Cx-%3E-5%5D+-+lim%28cos%5E2+x+%2B+sin%5E2+x%29%2C+x-%3E36%5D%29

Tried it a few other times and it seems to sometimes like giving something that results in 3^5 (which would be 243 on its own) followed by subtracting a bit from it, which ends up making it the wrong answer. In the link above, it basically goes (3^5) - (8 - (1 - 1)), so if you only keep the first brackets it would be correct.

It's good, although I expected something like the following that I wrote in the past:

In this formula, the subscript 36 refers to the radix 36, so it means that both the polynomial coefficients as well as its roots are base-36; all Latin letters are base-36 digits and that's why I used a Greek letter as the variable for the polynomial; it has two roots holding a humorous yet deep meaning.

Decimal version (convert the two roots to base-36):

f(x) = x^2 - 18425439x + 11126047267730

I think this would be a lot cooler if there was a complexity modificator to make the solution appear as cryptic as now, but easier to solve for average people.

Huh, I don’t think they’ll be able to know what number it’s supposed to be…

Nope, it was supposed to be 69

I would bet my life The first limit evaluate to 0

iOS sucks. I’ve got Brave which seems to work better than most others available for this dreary OS, but I got flooded with ads.

You could sign up for windscribe custom VPN plan, with 3 locations at I think $3 a month, when connected to the VPN you also can supress ads at the vpn/DNS level. Raspberry Pi and piHole will do it too, in your home network.

I’ve been using this one for a while, it has a premium subscription but I’ve been using the free tier with no issues so far.
