Not realistic that Jason wouldn't know the answer. 😀 Paige has a valid point about the dress question, though: leaving out crucial information from test questions sucks.

Yeah it turns out that this triangle is a Pythagorean triple. Math nerds might recognize it off the top of their heads. I didn’t though, I only know 3, 4, 5

She’d save $2 buying the second dress? What an arbitrary way to purchase clothing.

What if there's a lake of fire and despair and you can only take the route you came from? What kind of unspecific math teacher is that? Obviously the only answer in this case is 17, because he can't grow wings all of a sudden!

That assumes euclidean geometry on a plane. If you drive from the south pole on earth, the distance stays at 12km.

How do you know? What kind of unqualified assumptions are you trying to peddle here!?!?

Fair point. Then let's agree to refuse an answer. That question can't be answered.

You have slowly seduced me into seeing your viewpoint here, agreed 👍

That's kinda my thing, really. Hope you liked it
