<p>The one with the paper and the cut up triangles was 99 it just hit me.</p>
<p>because the last little strip of 5 only had four</p>
<p>it didnt have the down part of the equilateral triangle, it only had one half of the triangle </p>
<p>So 19 of the parts would be 5 inches long, and the last part would be four</p>
<p>which makes 99!!!!</p>
<p>It just hit me when i was about take a nap!!!</p>
<p>HAHA just kidding.</p>
<p>wrong
the original strip was 80 cm long
evenly divisible by four
kthnxbai</p>
<p>wow thread starter....... no.</p>
<p>g t f o .</p>
<p>So whats the answer lol, I think I put down 100 :(</p>
<p>I put down 100 as well. This thread almost gave me a heart attack after the first post. :) I like getting heart attacks.</p>
<p>haha i thought it WAS 99 for a few seconds, but its one hundred. i completely got it wrong and put 60.</p>
<p>It was definitely 100. Too bad I cancelled my test :P</p>
<p>no, it is definately 100. the 1 in covers the equilateral triangle.</p>
<p>i totally misread the question and solved it the wrong way and got like 20</p>
<p>afro ninj, i think i may have done the same thing as you. i remember the question, but not well enough to recall the specifics of it. is the wording posted anywhere around here? i'd like to look at it & see if i put the right answer or something drastically wrong. because i did answer it. :/</p>
<p>i also solved it totally wrong.. i think i ended up with something in the 20's... I don't what I did.</p>
<p>Hmm, me neither, but I'm really wishing I could remember. I don't think I read the question carefully at all, which makes me want to kick myself.</p>
<p>Did anyone get 96? I was pretty sure when I was doing it during the test.</p>
<p>"i totally misread the question and solved it the wrong way and got like 20"
Me, too =(</p>
<p>i still think the answer was 20, cause i think i know what one youre talking about..</p>
<p>I'm pretty positive I got that wrong, because it was one of my last math questions, if I recall. I guess I got burnt out. I think that one was tricky and I am none too happy about it. :[</p>
<p>It was 100. No question.</p>
<p>It was 100. I agree with 100.</p>
