Title: For those with time to waste or let your kids work it out. Post by: Ian Robinson on June 18, 2008, 09,36:15 PM This should keep you amused for a minute or two.
Ian When you work it out add your name in the attached file. The password is the correct number. Are you SMARTER than a 5th grader???? This is a 5th grade math problem. If you can't stand word math problems, just delete now. If you can find the right answer and use it to open the attached spreadsheet, you'll see it's a very small list of people who have gotten the correct number. This is not a trick question. This is a real math problem so don't say that a bus has no legs. Read carefully!!!! There are 7 girls in a bus Each girl has 7 backpacks In each backpack, there are 7 big cats For every big cat there are 7 little cats *Question: How many legs are there in the bus?* The number of legs is the password to unlock the Excel sheet. If you open it, add your name and send it on to see who else can unlock it. Title: Re: For those with time to waste or let your kids work it out.
