Solve This!

It was a little wacky at the conclusion of dinner tonight.  Suddenly there was math challenge afoot!  My big guy has this freakishly amazing ability to multiply two numbers together and come up with the right answer...in his head...without writing anything down!  And they can be two or three digit numbers!  Well, since he's good at such things...

"I only play games I can win at."

...he suggested a bit of a contest.  Little guy was allowed paper.  Dave did it straight out of his head.  Me?  Well, in spite of the fact that I seriously loved math in school and did things like solving matrices just for the fun of it, I picked up  my handy, dandy iPhone and punched the numbers in.

I mean, seriously, someone had to be the judge, right?

Thanks for "liking" my blog posts!!
