  • "5-19 Blues" (EKA #147)

This song shows that you can round off a lot of numbers but not the time the train leaves.

Cris returns with a pizza cut in 6ths - a slice for 3 cast members and half a pie for Arthur - but must return it to be recut when Luisa arrives and wants a slice.

A boy and a girl use subtraction to figure out how much money the boy dropped down a street grate, if he started with $1.69 and now has $1.44.

Cris returns yet again with a pizza cut in 9ths - a slice for 4 cast members and half a pie for Arthur. But what are they going to do when Reg arrives?


  • EB: Number Pattern Square Numbers

This short animation illustrates a number pattern involving square numbers: square numbers are the sum of consecutive odd numbers starting with 1.

Arthur Benjamin, a mathematician from Johns Hopkins University, can perform complicated calculations in his head. He demonstrates short-cuts for squaring 2 and 3-digit numbers to a group of children.


  • Music Video: "Countin' Out the Rhythm" (EKA #116)

This song, staged in a very urban setting, illustrates that there are 4 beats to every musical measure. The song also stresses the idea of subdividing each measure into 8 and 16 beats as well.

  • Mathnet Announcer: The Brothers Karamazoff or Karamazoff, Irving & Jake, were tried and convicted of a 6133, escaping from prison, a 211, robbing a bank, a 487.3, driving a mathematician’s car without his permission, a 653, Frank lying under oath and a 3.1416, impersonating a mathematician. They were sent back to prison and good riddance. They still write to George on a regular basis.
