Number 79 to 47
I am periodically the number 79. They once tried to make me from 29. If you add to me 80, I will appear to be 47 temporarily. What am I?
Gold was the answer. Seems like I didn't fool many people this time. I hated chemistry, so maybe I just thought everyone would think this was harder than it was.
