Geocache Description:


 

Maths Homework

 

OK. Hands up if you ever skipped maths homework ...

 

Yeah ... I thought so ...

 

Today's homework is to 'learn' about HEXADECIMALS and PRIME NUMBERS

 

clicky HEXADECIMAL

clicky PRIME NUMBER

 

Now, there are 16 tubs in the cache with hexadecimal numbers written on them. Only 1 tub contains the logbook, this being a prime number written in hexadecimal.

The numbers on the tubs are:

CDB 4E9 B85 77D

921 637 D53 459

97D B0F 553 731

67D 8AD 88B C65

You can either:

1) Do your homework (should take approx 20 minutes with the correct tools) and find the correct tub at gz super-quick, or

2) Open up to 16 tubs at gz (should take less than 5 minutes)

Let us know in your logs if you skipped homework. (I know which I'd choose ...)

 

Please be discreet and use care when retrieving and replacing this cache, as it is homemade and not easily replaced.

 

Enjoy.
