Hi mathaholic. I think you mean 304888344611713860501504000112 (or 3.04888344611713860501504000112 × 10^29).

To be honest, we have too many "forum games."
MIF seriously needs to consider not counting posts in "Members Only."

Why does it sound confusing? It is not hard to understand.

The one I posted is readable for me with a few pauses.
The one posted by phronister is unreadable.
A lot of examples at http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Typoglycemia

Counterarguments (even though I wholeheartedly dislike the education system):
1) That is usually only for high school level. At university, we are given several open-ended or unanswerable problems (usually just to show our effort or to discuss it)
2) Once again, that is usually only for high school level. At university, while most of the problems are proofs and the like, the computation problems are usually not in such a simple form.

It would be nice if the OP could note his first post to make people aware of the flaw and the fix before they embarked on trying to solve the puzzle.
Do that.

Hi Lorna;
Those were your monthly payments?
Highly likely that it is weekly.
