Round by round
A round scores 100 for a guess within a small margin of the truth and falls in a straight line to 0 for a wild one; the day is the average of the five. The pictures are the game — these are the figures behind them.
- Degrees. How many degrees is this angle? The angle drawn was 151°, 61° past a right angle.
- Share. What percent of the shape is colored? The shape was a teardrop, cut by a straight line: 18% of it colored, 82% not.
- Angle. Make a 38° angle. The angle to make was 38°, 52° short of a right angle.
- Average. Where is the average height of these bars? 5 bars, at 69, 60, 33, 13 and 100% of the tallest. Their average is 55%, above the halfway line.
- Count. How many dots? You get three seconds. 50 dots, shown for three seconds, in a cloud about 83% of the picture wide.
