I don't think I have posted the question very well - it's the numbers 1 to 10 above the line and the numbers 1112211112 below it. Unfortunately, I don't have any clues or other examples. Help, it's really annoying me now!!

It means "twelve thousand three hundred and forty-five million, six hundred and seventy-eight thousand nine hundred and ten divided by one thousand onehundred and twelve million, two hundred and eleven thousand one hundred and twelve" which is 11.100121889449347.

Limpy, Great answer - it's the most likely one I've seen!! The only "iffy" bit is the #5 (one stroke or two?) Maybe to make the answer more(?) correct I should change the 5th bottom line figure to a 1!!
