Saturday is Art's day for his 7 mile jog so I wasn't able to take a photo of that skeleton I showed you earlier in the week coming slowly out of the ground.
However, nice guy that he is, he added a mile by taking a different route home so he could take a photo for me in the dark.
So, nope.
No change.
Maybe tonight?
And here is the answer to that Halloween problem yesterday.
Most of you have already figured it out.
4👻 + 4👻+ 4👻= 12
4👻 + 8🎃 + 8🎃= 20
8🎃 + 3🦇 (1s) + 3🦇(1s) = 14
Therefore:
8🎃 + (4👻 x 2🦇) = 16
If you were looking at this problem on your phone, it was easy to miss that X.
OK, it's true I didn't know about having to do the multiplication first. (I hate algebra!)
Then there's the problem of the missing bat.
OK, did that take your mind off the election for a minute?
Thanks Dear Kay & Art!
ReplyDeleteHaha! Please thank Art for us and yes, for about 25 seconds! :^)
ReplyDeleteOuch. I totally missed that the bats were not a group signifying one number!
ReplyDeleteI like these!
ReplyDeleteYep. I have been tricked by puzzles like this enough to not miss things like the missing bat.
ReplyDeleteFun anyway.
Yes I read the x as a + and then didn’t realise they were individual bats. Wouldn’t do well at school would I??
ReplyDeleteOh just thought you’d like to know...my post today was inspired by one of recent ones.
I would have thought that the missing bat was a typo. Then I would have driven myself crazy getting the wrong answers. :) It seems to be the year for skeletons around me too.
ReplyDeleteIt took a sheet of paper but I got it. When I saw the missing bats, I knew to count them individually. That was fun. Thanks.
ReplyDeleteI enjoyed it and I even got it right! :-)
