equations test
The following is stolen from the April issue of Omni magazine.
I had so much fun trying to solve the puzzles that I thought
it worthwile to pass along.

Equations Test:
Each of the following "equations" contains the initials of words
which will make the equations correct. e.g.
26 = L. of the A. would be solved by 26 = Letters of the Alphabet.
If anyone cares to see the answers, they are promised in the next issue of
OMNI, or , my versions may be had on request.

1 = W. on a U.
>1 = W. to S. a C.
3 = "B. M. (S. H. T. R.)
3 = "C in the F."
4 = T.Z. in the C. U. S.
5 = D. in a Z. C.
6 = F. on a D.
7 = W. of the A. W.
8 = T. on an O.
9 = P. in the S. S.
9 = J. on the S. C.
10 = D. in a P. N. (I. the A. C.)
11 = P. on a F. T.
12 = S. of the Z.
12 = P. on a J.
13 = S. on the A. F.
14 = L. in a S.
14 = D. in a F.
16 = O. in a P.
18 = H. on a G. C.
20 = C. in a P.
24 = H. in a D.
24 = "B. B. in a P."
29 = D. in F. in L. Y.
32 = T. in a H. M.
40 = D. and N. of the G. F.
50 = "W. to L. Y. L."
54 = C. in a D. (with the J.)
57 = H. V.
64 = S. on a C.
76 = "T. in the B. P."
88 = P. K.
90 = D. in the R. A.
200 = D. for P. G. in M.
300 = a P. G. in B.
1000 = W. that a P. is W.
1001 = A. N.


Answers may appear in this group if demand warrants.
