Due to cutbacks at the local high school, physical education and mathematics were combined into one class. This made for some interesting "exercises". One of the questions on this term's final exam stated:

From a starting position walk to the right a distance (in feet) represented by the first prime number. Then turn right 90 degrees and walk a distance represented by the 2nd prime number, and so on, until all prime numbers less than 100 have been accounted for. Then answer the following questions.

a) How far have you walked?
b) How far (to the nearest inch) do you have to walk to return to your starting position?
