Combined Filters VTracs Cut Sums Pick 5 The VTracs Cut Sums (VTX-CS) is a so called "combined filter", a combination of a digit and a math filter. It requires two separate parts to create the filter.
The original idea of the VTracs (VTX), standing for variable tracs, was to take the daily lottery and to reduce the number of digits from 10 digits (0 to 9) to 5 digits (1 to 5). The reduction was supposed to simplify the tracking of 1000 Pick 3 numbers to 125 VTracs numbers. In between the VTracs concept was watered down by combining pretty every available filter with VTracs, while originally the idea was to improve the selection of straight numbers. The Cut Sums filter is a so called "math filter". Math filters are created through calculations. You get the sum of a number by adding up the digits within that number. The cut sum is the last digit of that sum. To show you how to calculate the VTracs Cut Sums filter for a Pick 5 number here an example step by step.
Part I: Pick 5 VTracs Cut Sums Conversion Step 1: Divide 69376 into separate digits: 69376 => 6 9 3 7 6 Step 2: Convert each digit to filter: 6 = 2 9 = 5 3 = 4 7 = 3 6 = 2 Step 3: Combine the filters to a string: 2 5 4 3 2 = 25432
Part II: Pick 5 VTracs Cut Sums Conversion Step 1: Divide the 25432 into separate digits: 25432 => 2 5 4 3 2 Step 2: Add up the digits: 2 + 5 + 4 + 3 + 2 = 16 Step 3: Select only the last digit: 16 = 6
