Good morning to one and all; I just wanna say that, my girlfriend and I werehappy for many years..................................................................................................before we met!

However, I digress: It doesn't matter what temperature a room is, it's always room temperature!



Mark:

TRAINS
The one that is headed toward St. Louis (no matter how fast they're going).

Regretfully I find I must disagree. At the place they meet they will both be exactly the same distance from wherever; is that not so? Laughing


NUMBER
16/3 Cool


TTH:

I got 5.33333333333 which is basically the same mark got, but his is shorter. Cool

"I kinda liked all those 3s"

Me too! Laughing

Your (b) and my (b) are two different justifications for 202.


then i guess i dont get ur notation for b


Treat all of the numbers as base 7. Convert them to decimal. They are consecutive squares.


ok i got it now

well part c was almost the same as part a. just pretend the sequence is time on a digital clock: 1:00 plus 21 minutes is 1:21 plus 23 minutes is 1:44 plus 25 minutes is 2:09 or 209.

There are two bottles each with a capacity of two liters. One bottle contains one liter of water, the other contains one liter of wine. There are two things you can do: (a) pour fluid from either bottle onto the floor, and (b) pour fluid from one bottle into the other. The only constraint is that you must always have at least one liter of fluid in the wine bottle. The object is to dilute the wine in the wine bottle with water as much as possible. What is the maximum dilution you can achieve?. Prove it!.

Every now and again there is a breakdown in communication due in part to my English she is pour, and grandmmar two.

Outter the kindness of my heart I complete 40% of the problem.



They were: 9 x x x 0



Mark:


CIPHER
25431 Shocked Drunk


Now, hands up all who did not expect to see a 9 and 0 in the answer? (Lzzie, TTH, Miss mi, Dutchy ya'll can put your hands down; because)


The complete addition looks as follows
(A=2, B=5, C=4, D=3, E=1):

2 5 4 3 1
3 2 5 1 4
1 1 2 5 4
2 4 3 2 1
------------ +
9 4 5 2 0




BOXES
240 Cool


That seems a lot; let me check…


1 x 1 x 0.5 = 0.5 cubic metres
6 x 5 x 4 = 120 cubic metres
120/0.5 = 240

You are right! Laughing
