Lets see... 7⁸ = 49⁴ = 2401² soooo.... 5764801? That seems right, let me check a calculator... yup, checks out.

An excellent question but it cannot be accurately answered without knowing the air speed of an unladen African swallow.

u/Dry-Ad8891 16h ago

How much can an African swallow?

Or am I supposed to assume it’s an unknown variable?

In the summer of 2001 my friend Travis and I brought the cheap plastic patio furniture on the roof after the last sleepover of summer and had a pancake breakfast on the peak of the house. Core memory unlocked thank you very much.

u/Agzarah 13h ago

Sloped or flat roof though? That can affect the size of the pancake

u/Floor_Cereal PURPLE 11h ago

Also, don't forget that if it were watermelons that the trucks had to carry, the answer would be "Green, because aliens don't wear pizza hats"

Susan had 150 lemons. She put an equal number of lemons into each storage drawer in her refrigerator. If she put 30 lemons in each drawer, how many days can she store them until her husband files for divorce?
