A Norwegian fella wants a job, but the dean won't hire him until he
passes a little math test
Without using numbers,
represent the number 9.
The Norwegian says, 'Dat's easy.' and proceeds to
draw three trees
Tree and tree and tree make nine,' says the
Norwegian.
Use the
same rules, but this time the number is 99
The Norwegian stares into space for a while, then picks up the picture
that he has just drawn and makes a smudge on each tree
How on earth do you get that to
represent 99
Each of da trees is dirty
he picks up the
picture again and makes a little mark at the base of each tree
The Norwegian leans forward and points to the marks at the base of each
tree and says, 'A little dog come along and pooped by each tree
you got dirty tree and a turd
nd dirty
tree and a turd, vich makes von hundred
