I'M GLAD THEY ARE TEACHING GOOD OLD MATH ONCE AGAIN.
Chicago Schools are finally starting to teach practical math that these kids can use in real-world situations!

1. Lajames has an AK-47 with a 200-round clip. He usually misses 6 of every 10 shots and he uses 13 rounds per drive-by shooting. How many mofos can Lajames ice on a drive-by before he gotta reload ?
2. Willie has 2 ounces of cocaine. If he sells an 8 ball to Antonio for $320 and 2 grams to Juan for $85 per gram, what be the street value of the rest of his schit?
3. Dwayne pimps 3 ho's. If the price is $85 per trick, how many tricks per day must each ho turn to support Dwayne's $800 per day Crack habit?
4. Raul wants to cut the pound of cocaine he bought for $40,000 to make 20% profit. How many ounce bags will he need to make to gets the 20% upside?
5. Ray-Ray gets $2000 for a stolen BMW, $1500 for stealing a Corvette, and $1000 for a 4 x 4. If he steals 1 BMW, 2 Corvettes and 3 4x4's, how many more Corvettes must he steal to make the 10k for his brother's bail?
6. Pedro got 6 years for murder. He also got $10,000 for the hit. If his common-law wife spends $100 of his hit money per month, how much money will be left when he gets out?
7. If an average can of spray paint covers 22 square feet and the average letter is 3 square feet, how many letters can be sprayed with three 8 oz. cans of spray paint with 20% paint left over?
8. Tyrone knocked up 4 girls in the gang. There be 20 girls in his gang. What be the percentage of bitches Tyrone knocked up?
9. Lafawanda is a lookout for the gang. Lafawanda also has a Boa Constrictor that eats 5 rats per week at a cost of $5 per rat. If Lafawanda makes $700 a week as a lookout, how many weeks can she feed her snake with one week's income?
10. Marvin steals Juan's skateboard. As Marvin skates away at 15mph, Juan loads his .357 Magnum piece. If it takes Juan 20 seconds to load his piece, how far away will Marvin be when he gets whacked?

10. Marvin steals Juan's skateboard. As Marvin skates away at 15mph, Juan loads his .357 Magnum piece. If it takes Juan 20 seconds to load his piece, how far away will Marvin be when he gets whacked? Things I've learned on the Fire: 1. never carry a handgun cold. You might need it in a hurry. 2. always carry a hunting rifle cold. You'll always have time to load it in a hurry. Juan broke the campfire rules.

That one still makes me laugh. Years ago when I lived in Los Angeles, a good friend of mine who was in the LAPD showed me that "high school math test" that was making the rounds in LAPD. Laughed then; laugh now. That was before Rodney King. I doubt it is "kosher" in LAPD to pass that one around, these days.

There was a book on algebra in my grade school library when I was 11. I read it and factored some polynomials. I used jr high algebra for a living to design power supplies and battery chargers from age 27 to 57.
I had my son doing some calculus at age 6. He graduated college at age 20 with a minor in math. He is now a software engineer and never uses math at work. He only uses math to design video games as a hobby.
Most people never use math for anything. It just a few of us nerds.
