NEWPORT, Ark. - A prison math teacher was reprimanded for substituting units of cocaine and methamphetamines while testing inmates on their multiplication skills.
Instead of using apples and oranges to calculate ratios, the instructor at an Arkansas prison used rocks of cocaine and meth ingredients. Among the questions:
- "Rico sells 422 rocks per week in four different territories. He wants to expand to seven different territories. If he continues to sell at the same rate how many rocks per week will he sell in seven territories?"
- "Jim Bob is cookin crystal meth in his back yard." After giving the formula for meth, the teacher posed the question, "How many Sudafedrine pills must he mix with 2.8 quarters of amonia?"
The teacher said he learned the equation from his students, according to Arkansas Department of Correction spokeswoman Dina Tyler.
"Which makes sense - they're the ones who would know," Tyler said.
A letter of reprimand was placed in the teacher's file, she said.
By the way, the answer to the first question above is 738.5 rocks.
