MATHEMATICAL QUESTION.
FRIENDS or TUE G, c.: have a mathematical
question tlai has puzzled our local mathetnaicinus
Ton some time, NOT one yet securing proper an.
swor. IL n this: Two men contract Tor 100 rods OF
ditch 10 dig at 81 per rod. According 10 the con-
tract they obliged TO dig cad ot The ditch
deeper thRn the other they agreed that ore
should dig at tic shHllOweT end foT - cents per
rod and the other 90 dig the deeper end for 81 20
per rod. Thus two rods would Ice dug and y earn
ed, according to the contract. The question arises
how many rods were each man 70 dlg 10 earn 80.
To anyone furnishing with answer viii
