Psh... All he does is grade homework and teach kids how to do more homework... FOR HIM TO GRADE!

And every time he teaches them how to do another piece of homework it is a harder homework set, so it takes longer to grade... Does that sound interesting?... To me that sounds very stressful...

He is giving himself homework for the rest of his life...

3 cubed is 27, of course!
Ken, why can't we just round numbers. - Why not 2/3 = .667?
Would that make a huge difference?
So 2 and 5 are denominational factors that reduce to a quotient.
It would change the outcome of the entire question.

It's 3 out of 8.
- Two tails, one heads right?
If we substitute 1 for heads and zero for tails we have:

000
001
010
011
100
101
110
111

3 chances out of 8 to either get two heads and one tails; or two tails and one heads.

To think I missed out on all this probability and statistics fun! It's been over 30 years since I did calculus and got the top mark in my stats class.

So, I'm out. Well, since the answer has been revealed, I was never really in.

Shakes head and wonders!

PS. Neat to know what Ken does for a living, and proved it with his calculations. Maybe we should all talk about what we do for a living. Maybe we could even argue theology in the middle of it!
