Lovely little puzzle, I knew it couldn't be that complicated but it still took a while to get it. My mother enjoyed torturing me, looking over my shoulder and laughing. And the answer is sooo simple!

Love this puzzle. It took me a little while to make it click, but once I got it, I was driving my friends crazy while they tried it to figure it out.

One of my students showed this to me and asked if I could figure it out. After I got home, I decided to try it. Once I realized the solution, I couldn't believe how simple it actually was.

My daughter brought this home as a homework problem. She got really upset when I didn't share the answer with her. Great problem!

I started off adding, dividing, multiplying to no avail. Then I re-read the intro and it all became crystal clear.
I pledge never to reveal the answer

I just recently was reminded about this by being sent an article from a recent Chronicle of Higher Education. You may check out the article for a few days, free, at: #@*%!chronicle.com/temp/email.php?id=btp5068nopsi03lonszrjyraqkjvwf6w
They got it a little wrong, but it's still fun.
