Peace.

I may be wrong here brother but I believe that the answer may be Two Hundred One Million, Six Hundred Thousand (201,600,000) hairs.

I arrived at this answer by the following:

144 square inches = 1 sq. foot

14 sq feet * 144 = 2016 sq. inches in 14 sq feet.

1/10th of 1 sq inch has 10,000 hairs so I assume that 1 sq inch has 100,000 hairs (10*10,000).

Then multiply the number of sq inches in 14 sq feet by the number of hairs per sq inch (2016*100,000).

Now the real part which I have no clue what that is right now is the esoteric meaning behind this answer and what was he trying to teach us with this particular problem.

All of these problems by themselves are here to teach us something in particular and then collectively as a whole they are there to teach us something as well. We know that there is a deeper meaning to all of the questions and answers and that there is so much symbolism hidden within each problem including their answers which can lead us to so much other discoveries and knowledge.

We know this problem is a symbolic one because 1/10 of a sq inch certainly doesn't contain that many hairs at least I wouldn't think so; and I really don't know how many square feet of wool the average sheep contains but I wouldn't be surprised if it isn't 14 sq. feet. So this leads me to believe the entire question is symbolic of something else.

One thing that I have always thought that this problem is touching on is the 85%. "easily led in the wrong direction, but hard to lead into the right direction."

Aren't the masses (85%) reference allot by the analogy of sheep? I think this may have something to do with this problem.

Would love to hear your thoughts on the matter and build.

Peace.

Peace Ivan

You made the mistake of including 144 in the equation. I believe the correct answer is 1,400,000. You made a great point, I believe the Sheep are the 85%. If we look at Question 14 in the 1-40, It's Who is the 85%.

Peace

I stand corrected the Answer is 201,600,000.

1 Square Inch = 0.006944444444444444 Square Feet
1 Square Foot = 144 Square Inches

I believe that Master Fard Muhammad was making reference to the 144,000 (12,000 men in 12 Tribes) that shall enter Heaven.

There are 60 seconds in a minute; 60 minutes in a hour; and 24 hours in a day. 60+60+24=144.

In the 3rd lesson of the Student Enrollment (1-10), it states that there are 17 million, with 2 million Indians, making it a total of 19 million and all over that planet Earth is 4,400,000,000. 19 equal 1 (1+9=10=1); and 4,400,000,000 = 44. So the 144 is gonna come right out of the total population of Original people here in the Wilderness of North America, and all over the planet Earth.

4,400,000,000 = 44 = 8 🤔👀

THE APPROXIMATE ANSWER TO THE TOTAL NUMBER OF HAIRS ON THE AVERAGE SHEEP OF 14 SQUARE FEET IS 201,600,000:
ONE SQUARE FOOT OF SHEEP’S HAIR IS 144 SQUARE INCHES.
ONE TENTH OF A SQUARE INCH OF SHEEP’S HAIR CONTAINS 10,000 HAIRS; THEREFORE TEN TENTHS (OR ONE SQUARE FOOT) OF SHEEP’S HAIR CONTAINS 14,400,000 HAIRS.
THUS, 14 SQUARE FEET OF SHEEP’S HAIR WOULD CONTAIN 14,400,000 (ONE SQUARE FOOT) x THE AREA OF 14 SQUARE FEET AND EQUALS APPROXIMATELY 201,600,000 HAIRS.

FOLLOWING THE LOGIC (NOT THE ESOTERIC) OUR STUDY REVEALS THAT THE LEARNING OF MATHEMATICS DEVELOPS COHESIVENESS AND UNITY IN SOCIETY. UNITY AND COOPERATIVE THINKING IS NECESSARY TO BUILD BRIDGES, BUILDINGS HOSPITALS, AND THRIVING COMMUNITIES STEEPED IN POSITIVITY.

THE NUMBERS, THEREFORE, ARE NOT AS SIGNIFICANT AS THE EXERCISE IN ABSTRACT THINKING THAT ONE MUST ATTAIN TO COMMUNICATE PROPERLY WHEN OUR ATTEMPTS AT ORGANIZING ARE AUTOMATICALLY ON SABOTAGE MODE. OUR OPPRESSORS DON’T EVEN HAVE TO BE IN THE BUILDING AND WE IMMEDIATELY COME TO VEHEMENT DISAGREEMENT ON HOW TO PROCEED AS A GROUP.

THE PROBLEM HEREIN PRESENTS UNITS OF MEASURE WHICH ARE VERY DIFFERENT, BUT SOMEHOW HAVE TO BE TRANSFORMED INTO AN ABSTRACT NOMINAL VALUE OR UNIT TO ALLOW FOR MULTIPLICATION IN ORDER TO ACHIEVE THE RIGHT ANSWER. WE CAN NOT EVOLVE AND PROGRESS IN THIS STATE OF INFANCY AND BABY TALK OF BLACK POWER. WE WILL HAVE TO BE ABLE TO NEGOTIATE AND USE LEVERAGE WITH FRIENDS AND FOES. WE MUST BE ABLE TO ABSTRACT THE THINKING OF THE ORIGINAL MAN INTO A MODERN AND UNIVERSAL NARRATIVE OF PROGRESSIVE NATIONS.

BROTHER PATRICK MUHAMMAD AND ANY OTHER THINKERS OUT THERE THAT WANT TO CONTRIBUTE TO THE MATHEMATICAL PROJECT OF SOLVING THE PROBLEM BOOK AND TEACHING THAT SCIENTIFIC KNOWLEDGE TO OUR CHILDREN IS WELCOMED TO PARTICIPATE IN THE FOLLOWING BLOG.

WE NEED MATHEMATICIANS FOR REAL ESTATE DEVELOPMENT; BANKING AND FINANCE (MONEY SYSTEMS); SCIENCE; MILITARY TECHNOLOGY; HEALTH; EDUCATION AND OTHER INFRASTRUCTURES FOR OUR NATION. THERE IS NO MYSTERY GOD.

THIS GENERATION WILL BAPTIZE BY WATER BUT THE NEXT GENERATION WILL BAPTIZE BY FIRE! A MATHEMATICAL THEOLOGY HAS TO TRANSFORM, OR MANIFEST, REALITY IN A TANGIBLE WAY, IN ORDER TO BENEFIT OUR PEOPLE AND NATION—OR ELSE THE NATION STAGNATES. WE’LL BE SOME SPIRITUAL GIANTS BUT ECONOMICALLY AND POLITICALLY INSOLVENT. WE HAVE TO EVOLVE INTO THE INDUSTRIAL TECHNOLOGIES OF OTHER POWERFUL SOVEREIGNTIES.

THAT’S WHERE THE $100 OF GOLD REWARDS WILL MANIFEST —BY INVESTING IN OURSELVES THROUGH ADVANCED EDUCATION.

PEACE AND POWER TO THE PEOPLE. 🖤💪🏽🤓

CHAT GPT JUST SOLVED THE NATURE OF THE QUESTION AND THE STEPS TO ANALYZE AND SOLVE THE PROBLEM:

To solve the problem, we need to follow these steps:

1. Convert the area of one-tenth of a square inch to square feet:

1 square inch = 1/144 square feet (since there are 144 square inches in one square foot)

1/10 square inch = (1/10) x (1/144) square feet = 1/1440 square feet

2. Find the number of hairs in one square foot:

1/10 square inch contains 10,000 hairs

1 square foot contains (1/1440) x 10,000 = 6.94 hairs (rounded to two decimal places)

3. Find the number of hairs in 14 square feet:

14 square feet contain 14 x 6.94 = 97.16 hairs (rounded to two decimal places)

Therefore, the answer is that the 14 square feet will contain approximately 97.16 hairs.

A blood pressure reading of 32 is very low and could indicate a medical emergency. It is possible that the blood pressure reading is incorrect or that the person is in shock or experiencing severe dehydration. It is recommended to seek medical attention immediately if you or someone you know has a blood pressure reading of 32.

A heart rate of 32 is also very low and could indicate a medical emergency. A normal resting heart rate for adults is typically between 60 and 100 beats per minute. A heart rate of 32 could be a sign of a heart condition, such as bradycardia, which is a slow heart rate.

Heart rate and blood pressure are related, but they are two different measurements. Blood pressure indicates the force of blood against the walls of the arteries, while heart rate refers to the number of times the heart beats per minute. They are both important indicators of cardiovascular health, and often, high blood pressure can cause an increase in heart rate. However, a low heart rate does not necessarily mean that a person's blood pressure is also low.

A pulse rate of 32 is very low and could indicate a medical emergency. A normal resting pulse rate for adults is typically between 60 and 100 beats per minute. A pulse rate of 32 could be a sign of a heart condition, such as bradycardia, which is a slow heart rate.

Pulse, heart rate, and blood pressure are related, but they are different measurements. Pulse refers to the rhythmic expansion and contraction of the arteries as blood is pumped through them, and it is often measured at the wrist or neck. Heart rate refers to the number of times the heart beats per minute, and it can be measured by taking the pulse or using an electrocardiogram (ECG). Blood pressure measures the force of blood against the walls of the arteries as the heart pumps blood.

The significant difference between pulse, heart rate, and blood pressure is that they measure different aspects of cardiovascular health. Pulse and heart rate both refer to the heartbeat, but pulse is a physical measurement of the heartbeat, while heart rate is a numerical measurement. Blood pressure, on the other hand, measures the force of blood against the walls of the arteries.

In the context of these terms, "register" simply means to indicate or show a specific measurement. For example, a pulse rate of 32 would mean that the pulse was measured at 32 beats per minute.
