    Oh come on. You can't post a mathematical puzzle and expect me not to work it out, no matter how farcical or silly
    If there is no sound in space, how come you can hear the lasers?

      edit: This is easy to show mathematically, by going in reverse. Assume for sake of contradiction that a particular answer is correct, and for each possible answer, you will see there is a contradiction and thus it is untrue. Thus there is no correct answer, QED*

      *not technically QED cause I didn't work out the actual contradictions for each response, but I'll leave that as an exercise to the reader

      Not a tricky question at all.
      Too easy.

      Actually, I'm disappointed that it took so long.

          A five year old tried to create a math problem based on his/her knowledge of an older sibling's homework.

              I guessed 5 because of the dominance of the number.
