runninbear1: I was hoping construction would have been done by now, but it looks like it will take a long time. Maybe sometime in the future, another hide in the area?

Geocache Description:


THIS CACHE IS NOT HIDDEN AT THE POSTED COORDINATES

A  3 aspirin rated this time ( more for some, less for others ) puzzle for your enjoyment.

 

When the kids ( or grandkids ) come home from school and it is time to do homework, I hear this phrase quite often. In fact, I say it all the time !!!

So I enlisted the help of the young ones and we created this puzzle so that you can say it too !!!
Since the old location was destroyed, and the geocache archived, I rounded up the grandkids again and we came up with this new puzzle for you.

Solve for : A,B,C,D,E,F,G,H, & I

 

N 41 1D.IEF

W 111 5G.IEH

Whereas

A + B + C = A x B x C 

Therefore

[ B ( B + C ) ] - A = G

G - [ ( B x C ) - ( A + C ) ] = E

E - [ ( A x B ) ( C - A ) + C ] = D

[ ( G x B ) - ( E x B ) ] + [ ( A + C ) + D ] = F

[ A ( C x F ) ] - [ D + ( E x C ) ] = H

[ ( G - E ) + ( F x D ) ] + H = I
