IF you know the answers or solve for all the blank spaces send private message for verification and acknowledgement of solution(s). Engineers encounter one of these almost daily and the other often without knowing they have done so. Have fun! ! !

Summary of Mathematic Puzzle to present.

TVP45 is awarded SPECIAL MENTION. Says they drop everything after the decimal point in Pittsburgh. They must produce unusual products and structures there.

JohnDG is awarded First Correct Answer Submitted. Also found a small discrepancy in the set up.

PWSlack calls it a numbers game. It isn't that hard. TWO CR4er's knew how. Just follow the directions given in the OP.

The following was received today. From: djdeanre 03/27/2008 2:11 PM
Response to "Mathametic Puzzle"

The answers are pi and e to the 14th and 10th decimal places, respectively. The hint completely gave it away, maybe it should have been posted a little while after to give some time for true puzzle lovers. ;)
