OK, ready? Brain teaser of the week!

Ack, these are driving me crazy! DS gets these for math class...and this one has been haunting me in my sleep. Help!

What could this mean?

2 = N in P

 

[merika]

Are you sure it's 2=N in P? 2=N ln P makes some sense where ln is the natural logarithm.

What kind of math is it?

 

[chinadoll724]

2 numbers in a pair?

It's not really math I dont' think. It's for fun and extra credit, the teacher gives them 5 problems for a total of 5 extra credit points. 4 of them are math, 1 of them is most always this type of question. Some previous ones have been:

12= N on C 12 = Numbers on Clock
366= D in LY 366= Days in Leap Year and so on... :s

2 numbers in a pair?

Hmmm....sounds good to me! This has been waking me up early in the morning...and once I start thinking about what it could be, I can't go back to sleep. Thank God he turns it in on Friday's.

Thank you for your help.

chinadoll I would say that would be a good guess 2 in a pair. sounds good to me!

 

[chinadoll724]

Yay. I hope that's right. With these things, sometimes, it just takes a fresh set of eyes.

My niece had a math worksheet like this last year when she was in 7th grade. She took a very advanced math class, about 3 years ahead, and when she came to me for help on this worksheet I was surprised they got such non-math related homework KWIM? We spent almost 2 hours on the worksheet. In the end? I didn't learn much, except:

Google is our FRIEND.

 

[ladyjane76]

Technically, no Peanuts are legumes and not nuts.
