What Time 2
Chris was worried about a math test coming up, so he asked his teacher if he could stay after school so she could help him study. She said 'yes' and gave him a note, but to his surprise, it said:
2^6*5^2
What time did the teacher mean?
2^6*5^2
What time did the teacher mean?
Answer
2^6*5^2 is 1600. 1600 would be 16:00, which in military time is 4:00 PM.Chris walked into his teacher's room at 4:00 after school.
"How did you know to come at this time?" his teacher asked.
"Well, I just did the math," said Chris, "and that's the prime factorization of 1600, and 16:00 is military time for 4:00."
"You know all you need to," said the teacher.

This is fun and easy .
Yes, fun and easy... but especially fun
Lame story line, answer would have been much better without carrying on the story.
It's not supposed to be the story line as much as it is the puzzle itself...
i think it's better for you to just write a story, not a teaser.. LOL
the question looked wierd but was really easy
