That made my head hurt.  The answer isn't something mathematical.

Are they models of trucks, planes, cars, weapons, or something along those lines?

They are all patents?

They might be serial commas, but I am not sure what one of those is.

Not patents.

A serial comma is the comma before "and" in a list, such as red, white, and blue. Whether to use serial commas is a hot issue among us editorial folk.

Your stats in metric?


BTW, I like the serial comma.  It is the way I was taught.  Although, I really prefer the glitter comma.  That is where you sprinkle glitter over the paper and where ever it lands, you place a comma.  That is my favorite comma.

I'm stumped.  I've looked up the atomic weight of silver, longitudes and latitudes, Alice Walker's ISBNs.  I've tried multiplying your height, weight and age by various numbers.  Is it something really obvious that I'm missing?

Here's a big old hint: I was really bummed when they demoted Pluto.
