That's what we're here for. I'm Stephen Cray 24 00:01:24,400 --> 00:01:27,480 Speaker 1: and hopefully this quiz about numbers has the opposite effect 25 00:01:27,959 --> 00:01:32,920 Speaker 1: of exponential decay. And a reminder, this quiz will require 26 00:01:32,959 --> 00:01:36,240 Speaker 1: you to push paws on a number of occasions if 27 00:01:36,280 --> 00:01:39,119 Speaker 1: you want to do really well at it. Okay, let's 28 00:01:39,120 --> 00:01:42,520 Speaker 1: get to it. Question one, pick a number between one 29 00:01:42,560 --> 00:01:48,400 Speaker 1: and ten, just jo king. How many bears are there 30 00:01:48,720 --> 00:01:56,720 Speaker 1: in the cautionary Tale of Goldilocks.

Question three, here's one 34 00:02:15,280 --> 00:02:18,360 Speaker 1: you might want to push pause on. Complying with standard 35 00:02:18,440 --> 00:02:23,760 Speaker 1: notational limits and without using the Vinkilum multiplier. What is 36 00:02:23,800 --> 00:02:27,600 Speaker 1: the highest number that can be represented by Roman numerals? 37 00:02:27,919 --> 00:02:30,919 Speaker 1: Sounds more complicated than it is. What's the highest number 38 00:02:31,840 --> 00:02:34,679 Speaker 1: you can use Roman numerals to represent without using the 39 00:02:34,760 --> 00:02:37,720 Speaker 1: multiplier line. I'll give you a clue. It's in the 40 00:02:37,840 --> 00:02:46,880 Speaker 1: three thousands, three thousand, nine hundred and ninety nine. Now 41 00:02:46,960 --> 00:02:49,239 Speaker 1: let me explain. See, you can't have more than three 42 00:02:49,320 --> 00:02:54,320 Speaker 1: consecutive identical numbers, meaning four thousand can't be written as 43 00:02:54,600 --> 00:03:00,200 Speaker 1: M M M M, so the letters are mmm, C 44 00:03:00,840 --> 00:03:05,520 Speaker 1: M X CIX. Now, the vinculum is a line that 45 00:03:05,560 --> 00:03:08,079 Speaker 1: goes over a letter and multiplies it by one thousand. So, 46 00:03:08,160 --> 00:03:12,040 Speaker 1: applying the same rules with a vinculum, the biggest number 47 00:03:12,080 --> 00:03:15,680 Speaker 1: possible to be represented by Roman numerals is three million, 48 00:03:15,880 --> 00:03:18,880 Speaker 1: nine hundred and ninety nine thousand, nine hundred and ninety nine. 49 00:03:18,880 --> 00:03:23,320 Speaker 1: If you're confused, well, I apologize, but it's pretty straightforward. 50 00:03:23,320 --> 00:03:26,160 Speaker 1: I just hope I've explained it well.
