You’ve found a bunch of Christmas toys, or at least you might be thinking dang, how many more are there going to be. This one is a little different and it requires math. Wahooo.
Note, the cache is not hidden at the posted coordinates and remember to wear Orange during hunting season.
Hope you enjoy the trivia. One small challenge as you answer, try to answer as many as you can before looking up any of the answers. I’m curious to hear how you scored on the 12 questions below.
Solve the questions below using data from. Perform the math equation afterwards to get to the right spot. Remember Longitude and Latitude math may not work on your calculator.
A = How many feet long is a standard slinky uncoiled? The Google Result should look like: "Each Slinky contains ______ feet of flat steel wire, and weighs approximately 1/2 pound. When a Slinky is compressed it is only 2-1/4 inch long, but it can be stretched into a helix as long as 15 feet in length without deforming."
B = What city and state is Barbie fictionally from? Concatenate the city and state with no spaces to get the number of letters. If she was for example from “Stevens Point Wisconsin”, you would count the letters in “StevensPointWisconsin” which would equal 21.
C = How many circles in the original game of Twister?
D = How many different colored pegs came with the original Lite Brite? (Example: Red, Green, Blue = 3).
E = How many sides in a Rubik Cube? (If you have to google this answer, this cache will be too hard to find, lol).
F = How many different unique images are in a standard View Master Picture wheel?
G = How many different unique Army Men Plastic Soldiers are in the original simple toy set?
H = In the game of Yahtzee, how many points is a small strait worth?
I = A Sino-European domino set consists of how many dominos?
J = What watt bulb is used in an easy bake oven?
K = What was the original game that came with the Atari VCS later renamed the Atari 2600? Count the letters in the name of the game. If the game was “ET” the answer would be 2.
L = How many hits in battleship does it take to sink the submarine?
Now for the math portion of the test.
M.MMM = ((A * B * D * E) / (C)) - 1607
N.NNN = ((F * G * H * I * K) / (J * L)) + 1051
Remember to round to the nearest integer before adding or subtracting.
Calculate the final starting with the following coordinates:
N 42 31.447 + 00 0M.MMMM (Example: If M = 1.111, your final would be N 42 32.559)
W 087 58.280 + 000 0N.NNNN (Example: If N = 1.111, your final would be W 087.59.280)
Good Luck!
