Thanks for the explanation! I was wondering what happened. You shouldn't lie to your daughter, though...or at least, you have no reason to be upset when I lied to you in turn...

lol @ the mod.

BTW, there's value in knowing this stuff; if not to help your daughter, then for basic mental exercise. The second lot you posted don't require anything more than 3rd grade arithmetic - they're based on the simple logic of seeing the relations between items, which is helpful with a lot of everyday stuff.

I agree with you Phil. I've gone back and refreshed my memory. My daughter I and are having math duels. It's been great practice and fun for both of us. When she gets into calculs I'll be toast.
