Didn’t anyone teach you fractions and the English system of measuring foods in school? Or are you trying to get someone to do your homework for you now?

Congress recently raised the mandatory retirement age of commercial pilots to 65 from 60, because there aren’t enough young people training to be pilots to take over for the retirees.

I suspect it is because of the math and science needed to understand aerodynamics is beyond the comprehension of too many of our undereducated young citizens.

If you get desperate you can always eat the marshmallows plain.

Don’t blame hole_n_one.

The subject probably didn’t come up in school.

I thought the question was more about recipe suggestions vs fractions.
