Okay, we are playing an education game called Head of the Class. The subject matter is mathematis, the level is Scholar (intermediate). Here are three questions with answers that do not make any sense.
If N = 4.5+9.7, what is the value of N? Answer 10
If N2 = 100, what is th value of N? Answer 14.2
What is the value of 23? Answer 8
If anyone can explain these answers my family would be grateful.
I think you are playing a drinking game and you are on about round 10.
The third might make sense were there a fourth to pair with it, although "the value of 23" is pretty straightforward.
Isn’t the answer to all of those 42?
Train A arrives first.
Sally is left with 2 dimes and one nickel.
The butler did it.
I assure you I am not. This is a board game. These are the questions with the answers.
Depends on the base.
2 to the 3rd Power is 8
You are correct..Don’t Panic..;>)
What time did the first train leave Philadelphia?
Are you sure that game is not from China and actually labeled “Head of Crass”?
I find at least one of those a day. I remember once returning a "Disney encyclopedia for children," which had an average of one such error per page.
Yes, the people who wrote the question did not put 2^3 but only 23.
Thank you.
"I think you've been naughty...!"
Y'all wanna be right.
Y'all wanna be grateful to us.
Y'all think we're dumb??
Your answer is better!
The secret to flying is throwing yourself at the ground and missing accidentally.
FREEPERS did it.
N^2 =100 so N = 10.
4.5 +9.7 =14.2.
All very simple mistakes on the part of the people who prepared this game. I was looking for something far more complicated.
