1) Solve this cryptic equation, realizing of course that value for M and E could be interchanged. No leading zeros are allowed: WWWDOT – GOOGLE = DOTCOM

Answers: 777589 – 188106 = 589483 or 777589 – 188103 = 589486

2) How many different ways can you color an icosahedron with one of three colors on each face?

Answer: 58,130,055

3) Which of the following expresses Google’s over-arching philosophy?
a) I’m feeling lucky
b) Don’t be evil
c) Oh, I already fixed that
