A = the year President Abraham Lincoln’s mother was born
B = the altitude of Pikes Peak in feet
C = the ZIP code of Cheboygan, Michigan
D = the number of kilometers in a mile, to at least 4 decimal places

G = the year mentioned on the Mothers Against Drunk Drivers plaque - N 39° 21.378 W 84° 35.052

To calculate X, multiply A times D. Round to the nearest whole number. Subtract 304, then subtract F.

To calculate Y, take C and subtract B, then subtract E. Divide by G.Multiply the result by 39.822. Round to the nearest whole number.
