What's your answer? Don't explain how you got to it. wink

CLICK HERE FOR THE CORRECT ANSWER...
Correct answer is 43.

boots are 5 each
woman is worth 5 each
scope is 2 each

so in the final row you see one boot worth 5, plus one woman with 2 boots and 2 scopes = 19 x one scope worth 2 = 43
Rules of math are you do the multiplication before addition thus this is the correct problem for the final line ...

5+(19x2)= 43

Re: Don't explain it. Just give your answer. - 05/08/19 05:14 PM

Correct answer is 43.

boots are 5 each
woman is worth 5 each
scope is 2 each

so in the final row you see one boot worth 5, plus one woman with 2 boots and 2 scopes = 19 x one scope worth 2 = 43
Rules of math are you do the multiplication before addition thus this is the correct problem for the final line ...

5+(19x2)= 43

So 5+5+5=30?

You need 2 boots + 2 boots + 2 boots = 30 so 1 boot + 1 boot + 1 boot = 15 each boot is 5

No, no, no. The real answer is 42. Everybody should know that 42 is the "Answer to the Ultimate Question of Life, the Universe, and Everything.”

This Answer was first calculated by the supercomputer Deep Thought after seven and a half million years of thought. This shocking answer resulted in the construction of an even larger supercomputer, named Earth , which was tasked with determining what the question was in the first place.

Why is an Eskimo only worth one more point than a pair of binos and only half as much as a pair of LL Bean boots, but equal to one old LL Bean boot? A math problem like this in Canada would probably have Justin Trudeau sending out the RCMP for a hate crime against First Peoples, unless of course he is firing them for not covering up his Ottawa governing.

One more thing, in psychological tests, husbands see their wives as blushing brides yet at 30 years of marriage. This test hints how repetition to the human male primate has them seeing the same thing from the beginning while jumping to the end. Wonderful thing for women, but the problem for men is their wives see them day one to day 10950 in hindsight, present sight and foresight.

Problems with the problem.

I contest that a single boot is almost worthless. A pair might be worth 10 in this example. But who in their right mind thinks they can sell a single boot and therefore credit themselves for it. Also I thought that was a dude, but regardless how superficial are we to sign a value to a person. You are not going to catch me putting a value on a woman (even a ugly one). Nothing good can come of that.

Reminds me of that joke...


A lecturer teaching medicine was giving a classroom observation. He took out a jar of yellow liquid. "This," he explained, "is urine. To be a doctor, you have to be observant of color, smell, sight, and taste."

After saying so, he dipped his finger into the jar and put it into his mouth. His class watched in amazement, most in disgust. But being
the good students that they were, the jar was passed, and one by one, they dipped their finger into the jar and put it into their mouths.

After the last student was done, the lecturer shook his head. "If any of you had been observant, you would have noticed that I put my second finger into the jar and my third finger into my mouth."

We're 11 pages in, so I'm taking a chance and explaining something.

I don't understand how they can put a pair of boots and telescopes together, then claim they each equal one number apiece. If that was the case, each boot being worth 5 with a pair next to each other mathematically translates to 5x5+5x5+5x5 much like (105)(10)=1,050
