Clever.
Only certain numbers are possible according to the criteria given, for instance 27 or 63. The site switches the symbols around each time, giving all the possible numbers the same symbol, so it'll always be correct.

EDIT: Geoffrey came up with the clever idea of spoiler tags. Clever Geoffrey. Why didn't i think of spoilering it and saying how it works?
