e've all seen them. They
look normal, and yet
...Their checkbooks are
always balanced. They
stay up late at night thinking about
planes and infinite lines, rather than
watching TV tabloid shows.
Something like this: 3(31\1.1)-1 divid-
ed by (3A) — actually makes sense to
them.
I'm talking about those people who
really know, and love, mathematics.
Among the greatest math geniuses
today are the members of the math
club at Princeton University. And they
have come up with a question that
involves an Israeli armored brigade
which you are invited to solve.
Don't panic — yet. According to the
club, this question falls in the category
of "Simple Puzzles." (So if this one is
just too darn easy for you, check out
their "Impossible Puzzles — Enter At
Your Own Risk" at

If you actually solve this, we would
LOVE (and I do mean LOVE) to run
your name here in AppleTree in BIG
BOLD PRINT!

An Israeli armored brigade consists of
two armored battalions and one infantry
battalion, while an infantry brigade
consists of two infantry battalions and
one armored battalion. An armored bat-
talion consists of two armored squadrons
and one infantry squadron, and an
infantry battalion consists of two
infantry squadrons and one that is
armored. It keeps on this way through
squadrons, platoons, squads, until final-
ly, an armored squad consists of two
armor soldiers and one infantry soldier,
and an infantry squad ... you know
already.
How many soldiers should be retrained
in order to transform an infantry
brigade into an armored brigade?
