thanks....clear as mud hehehehe no seriously marine_navy you really did clear it up and i didn't know about the retesting.
3d's-do you mean more Navy than Marines or more students total? i think you mean more students in total but some got sent back to the next class.
ok got it...class sizes vary a bit and the make up of Sailor/Marine fluctuales as well....since one Marine is a girl and we know of one Sailor(mine)-then we can deduce that a=1, b=1 therefore we know the sum total is 24 but a+? +b+? =24 we do not know.....why in the heck is my son finding math a challenge???? hehehehehehe
ok i go stick my nose in the corner....creating a little mischief...missed it ; )
and if any newbies don't get it...well hang on...we can have fun at this!!
marine_navy---NINE? only nine in her class? that sure seems like a very small number unless you tell me that the class size was much bigger and that most of them failed? oh i hope NOT???
and i think i remember that Monica has no idea either until her husband finally got his orders and boy isn't that wacky...she's got to go to Pax River and he won't be there until June i think.
