Ok, open the first rtf document (it will open in ms word, wordpad, etc) and figure out the problem.

Then open the excel file, you will be prompted for a password, the solution to the problem is the password to open it. Then add your name to the list, save it and forward it to your friends :D


I scanned these files and they are safe, no viruses or bad stuff in them.

Okay all you "Math Wiz" kids. Let's see what you can do with this one! Add your name to the spreadsheet if you get it. This helps keep your mind sharp!

- There are 7 girls on a bus
- Each girl has 7 backpacks
- In each backpack, there are 7 big cats
- For every big cat there are 7 little cats

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, save it, forward it back to the person who sent it to you and on to anyone else you think might have fun with it.
Remember each cat has 4 legs, and each girl has 2, but the backpacks have none.;)

Oh you do? Here's one for you I just made up..

If you accelerate from a stop and travel a total distance of 1,320 feet and have an accelertion rate of .409 and your speed when you cross the finish line is 166 FPS (Feet per second), how long did it take in seconds to travel the entire distance?

If you accelerate from a stop and travel a total distance of 1,320 feet and have an drag factor of .54 and your speed when you cross the finish line is 166 FPS (Feet per second), how long did it take in seconds to travel the entire distance?
Thats an impossible question. You have to factor in R/T as well as how long you spun the tires off the line. When I first when to the track, my first run had a 60' of 3 sec and my second run had a 60' of 2.2 sec. and my trap speeds were no more than .1 mph difference.

Uhhh, RT has NOTHING to do with how quickly or how fast you run the 1/4 :poke:

RT only tells you how fast you trip the lights.

You could set there for 10 minutes, then go and the ET and MPH would be the same as if you had cut a perfect light. :poke:

To anyone who hasn't gotten it yet, I'll give you a hint.

The answer is btw 9,000 and 12,000

Needless to say, A LOT.

Read the question very slowly, think about what it's saying and make sure you multiply ALL cats x 4, and all ladies x 2 to get number of legs. :D
