Old Math Books
  • I have a very strange algebra teacher that collects old mathematics books. One day, I asked him how many old math books he has. Being a math teacher he responded, �If I divide the books into two unequal whole numbers, then 64 times the difference between the two numbers equals the difference between the squares of the two numbers.� How many old math books does my algebra teacher have?
