    If you are travelling at 80 miles per hour, how long does it take to cover 80 miles? She might get the correct answer by the time you have travelled the 80 miles. :rolleyes: http://www.youtube.com/watch?feature=player_embedded&v=OdYTj5CChaA#![^]

        I don't want to spoil the plot for you, but I will say it goes from wet to less wet. I won't tell you the ending!

          In most countries, travelling at 80 MPH it would take you a long time to go 80 miles. You'd be carted off to a local court and fined for speeding; or, if very lucky, have to endure a long, severe lecture from a member of the boys / girls in blue. After either of these, you would ensure that you kept to the speed limit for the rest of the journey, another possible outcome would be that you would soon meet a traffic jam or get stuck behind a tractor / caravan and have to crawl along for large parts of the journey meaning that the 80 MPH cannot be maintained. So the answer is 'a long time'. The lady in the clip is the one who is on the right lines, not the man who asked the question; she is looking at the real world problem, not some maths textbook problem.

            What I'm wondering is this: Is this guy still alive? I can't believe she is still with him! Not everyone gets math. It comes VERY easy to me, but I have this wonderful lady in my life who doesn't get math. Big Deal! She is one of the smartest people I know, but her brain knows words, not numbers. She can spell, I can't. I can do math, she can't. This guy needs his head slapped real good!
