I am amazed about the amount of discussion an elementary school math problem can generate!  Are you guys the same ones with stories about how the kid serving you at Burger King can't calculate change in his head?

If six plus four equals two-hundred-ten, then all bets are off!

Well, its kinda abstract, but, its easy.  Its not really about the math, just reasoning.

Even I could figure it out [ I figured the other too] and I've only taken old math. Cuz, I'm old.

Wouldn't it depend on the breed of horse? A 1/3 Clydesdale Horse would be bigger than a 1/2 pony horse wouldn't it?

Dividing by a fraction is the same as multiplying by its reciprocal.

So  9 - 3 ÷ 1/3 + 1 =
      9 - 3 x 3 + 1 =
      9 - 9 + 1 =
      0 + 1 = 1

Guy goes into a pizza store and asks for a whole pie.  Pizza man says should I cut into 8 slices or 6 slices.  Guys says "cut into 6 slices, I don't think I could eat 8."
