This puzzle is a blend of various lessons that can be done individually as homework or extra credit, or in pairs (if the students are younger.) The intent is to blend some math with learning a little something about the Big Ten Conference. The math which will be learned is focused around learning exponents and working with the order of operations. The blend is in learning a little about the history of the Big Ten Conference . . . while having a little fun doing so. The answer to the entire puzzle is a quote (and its speaker) which is a bit of wisdom we might all recognize as reality.
