It was pretty easy to be fair; Shane did it an unnecessarily complicated way - he made 10 by doing (100/50)x5 when he could have just done 50/5.Hannah O wrote:I expected the 4 large round (the last numbers round) to stump Shane as he'd consistently gone for 6 small, but I was taken aback when he solved the round spot on!
I must admit, I hadn't noticed til I read your post. I also made the ten by taking 100/50 and multiplying by 5. Although admittedly if I was on the show, I'd've been tempted to be awkward and make Rachel calculate 5*79*100 and then to divide that by 50.Phil Reynolds wrote:It was pretty easy to be fair; Shane did it an unnecessarily complicated way - he made 10 by doing (100/50)x5 when he could have just done 50/5.Hannah O wrote:I expected the 4 large round (the last numbers round) to stump Shane as he'd consistently gone for 6 small, but I was taken aback when he solved the round spot on!

He did quite distinctly enunciate "sea-men", stressing both syllables, thereby averting multiple sources of confusion.Rich Priest wrote:I noticed on one round Shane declared what I thought sounded like SEAMAN when there was only one A. It may have been SEAMEN but it didn't sound like it so I was surprised he wasn't asked to spell it.
