Math Question - Seventh-day Adventists' Leading Forum

Welcome with open arms fellow believers who don’t see things the way you do.
And don’t jump all over them every time they do or say something you don’t agree with
– even when it seems that they are strong on opinions but weak in the faith department.
Remember, they have their own history to deal with. Treat them gently. Romans 14.1: The Message

Aubrey Registered: 2009-02-23 Posts: 1179	Helen of Troy was described as having a "face that could launch a thousand ships". If a face could launch a thousand ships, what would it take to launch 5 ships?

Bravus Husband and Father Registered: 2004-09-05 Posts: 13738 Loc: Brisbane, Australia	Someone has also suggested that a 'Helen' is the unit of facial beauty that will launch a thousand ships, so to launch one ship requires a 'milliHelen' of facial beauty. So, 5 mH, I guess. _________________________ Truth is important
