Trivia Question

That's Accountants for you, always looking for the Hidden Numbers

 

So you are saying be stupid (Keep It Simple, Stupid)? He did not specify, you are ASSuming he meant to use the conventional system AND whole numbers AND digits.

I merely expanded upon the message that I quoted (#7) and added specificity. We all often ask very unspecific questions that require others to guess what we are talking about and somehow we are usually able to guess correctly. In a 'test' situation like this though, it is entirely reasonable to expect a non-standard meaning of common words.

Of course by the OP's answer, you were correct and I was being a smart @ss. Thank you, thank you very much...

 

Of course not! I was saying Keep It Simple Steve but I thought you might bite. Good thing you know I am just teasing you.

 

d*mn I missed that one!!! Keep It Simple Steve.... I like it!!!! LOL

 

you can tell the military guys (KISS)

 

Perhaps it is a trick question in that the only 7 standing alone in that statement would be the number 7, so the answer would be one. Otherwise, the answer is 20. However, my thoughts are more on the one 7 and not the twenty 7s.

 

Since the original poster did not come back and tell us the answer, I went to our dear friend Dr. Google. The answer is 20 all day.

 

10

 

Did you counted also all 7X?

 

20
