Problems

If you're one of those who's numerically literate, now is your opportunity to aid a Berkeley Economics Professor. Brad DeLong is looking for math problems to help him infuse a love of the subject in his kids. So far he's got 23 problems defined, but he's lookin' for 100. I'm a dead loss at this. If it gets beyond "two trains are heading in opposite directions on the same track, one at 25mph and one at 75mph; what happens next?" I'm up the creek. I know some of you can do this stuff; go help the guy out. Failing that, just check out the existing 23 questions; some of them are funny as hell, and some are drawn from real-life experiences, or seem to be.
