Math Question

[Outta Here]

Helen of Troy was described as having a "face that could launch a thousand ships". If a face could launch a thousand ships, what would it take to launch 5 ships?

[rudywoofs (Pam)]

.005 of Helen of Troy's face

or 5 bottles of champagne

here's one for you:

From Widdletown to Waddletown and waddle back to Widdletown and widdle back to Waddletown is 15 miles. How far is it from Widdletown to Waddletown?

[Outta Here]

Hehe. 5 miles! Woot. I love the answer .005 face!

(Also like the answer of 5 bottles of champange!)

Someone has also suggested that a 'Helen' is the unit of facial beauty that will launch a thousand ships, so to launch one ship requires a 'milliHelen' of facial beauty. So, 5 mH, I guess.

[Outta Here]

5 mH! Sweet!
