Filling in the Blanks

___ + ___ + ___ = 30

USING
1, 3, 5, 7, 9, 11, 13, 15.

Jaime Ruins the Episode

Almost immediately, Jaime solves the equation! The trick is to using the period at the end of the variables to implement decimals, but beyond that there are many permutations that can work to make the equation true.

Fun Facts

  • This episode almost didn't make the cut, because it was solved so easily. It was left in the lineup mostly to teach that not every trick will work perfectly, and because it was a fun experience.
  • The ad spot in this episode is a direct response to the comments for this episode from Vessel, where everyone complained about not knowing what the actual solution was.
  • The title doesn't actually have anything to do with this episode, but instead is referencing the last episode featuring these guests.
