This is the comment section! When you first post a comment, it will be held in a moderation queue, but don’t worry – I go through the comments pretty quickly.

Hey this is Leah! Just leaving a comment like you wanted us to! I remember you saying something about writing our birthdates so mine in January 13th

Hi! My birthday is on March 25.

4. Owen says:

My birthday is the same as that of Chuck Norris and one of the world’s most infamous figures.

5. Emili says:

I was born on that same day as Walt Disney…? Why are we doing this?

• mixedmath says:

Actually, it’s very funny. I mentioned that you should write a comment and say anything you want, even just your birthday. But it’s becoming a monster of its own – cute.

OH BY THE WAY

I sent my math teacher the link to your website… specifically the ‘Humor’ section! She loved it, and added it to her bookmarks :)

I know that the practice test is supposed to spell dinosaur, but for question 5 I got 25 which would be an extra o. (I was doing (1/5) (mod 31).) I checked 29 which is what the answer should be to spell dinosaur and it didn’t work. All the rest of them worked out correctly though.
