He’s a genius!
The answer to last week’s brainteaser is 66 percent. EECS junior
Ken Elkabany, IEOR senior Borhan Oskoorouchi and ME graduate student
Chris Hogue sent in correct answers, but CEE senior Brian Yangyuen
got it right first. Congrats Brian! Thanks everyone for submitting
an answer. Stay tuned for next week’s brainteaser.
