word problems

There, much better.

1000 internetz to the first correct answer--pencils up!

Who's ready for a word problem?

"A carnival worker is asked to paint the deck of a carousel. Because the center of the carousel is occupied by machinery, he can't measure its diameter or even its radius. The best he can do is to take the measurement shown in green, which is 42 feet.

He's explaining this apologetically when his supervisor stops him. 'That's all the information we need,' he says. 'That's enough to tell us how much paint to buy.'

What's the area of the ring around the center of the carousel?"

I've always wondered why two trains are always approaching each other at varying speeds.

The usual 1000 internetz prize will go to the best (and most creative) "yo mama" joke. Channel your 8th grade self and hope that you really were as clever and hilarious as you thought you were back then.
