The answer to 6 times 9.

Interesting problem.

Now in later life if Dick had become a mathematician he might have said well 6 +- 0.5 and 9 +- 0.5 which means it is between 46.75 and 61.75 with a probability of being in that range of 68%. There is less than a 1% percent chance it is greater than 100.

Now if Roger was sucking a squashed fly biscuit sitting on top of the Old Man he would cheekly say 63.

And it George Odgen(?) had become an accountant then he would as all such shonky accountants say - how much do you want it to equal. And by the time the auditors found the mistake he would be living in the Azores in a large mansion.

Now something on Eygptology

Did you know the really big Pyramid is not square at a constant height above the base? - This relates to Dick's father so it is on topic.
