Mr. Kramer has lost his marbles again. 1/3 were blue and 4/9 were green. What fraction were neither blue nor green? Does he have enough marbles to outwit a well-educated hamster?
Unbeknownst to most people, Martians invaded Earth back in 1979 when Mr. Kramer's hair was parted down the middle and he sported great wings. Heroically, Mr. K. used his hairy wings to save Earth and defeat the green invaders, but in the process he took several laser gun blasts to the head. The first blast took out 2/9 of his brain, while the second blast messed up his hairstyle. Can you prove that after the first blast Mr. K still had more than half of his brain?
What weighs more, 1/2 pound of iron or 1/2 pound of Mr. K's hair? Please explain.
