Click here for a math exercise from FoxTrot. At the top of the left pane is a series of numbers. By figuring out the math problems in the key below, you can determine the number that corresponds to each letter of the alphabet. Then you can substitute the appropriate letter into the series of numbers above to decode the message. The hardest math problem shown is probably the one for letter ‘Q,’ since you need to know a little calculus to figure it out. However, the good news is that the letter ‘Q’ isn’t used in the message, so you don’t need to know how to do this problem to complete the exercise. Note: The answer for letter ‘Q’ is twenty-four.
