    The answer is 178,910,723.64382

    Don’t ask me why I calculated that

      I don’t accept your answer. I know deep in my heart that it’s 4.

        There’s a 4 in the more accurate answer. That is proof of the divine showing the truth before man could understand the full answer.

      I saw three different serious-looking answers, so I punched it into a spreadsheet to get my own answer. What I got matches your answer, but with an extra 2 at the end.

      That is just a theory. You should present both sides. Also a majority of religious scholars say it is 4.

      Heathen! At that scale the digits after the decimal point aren’t significant. I’m sure you know that in your heart. Why can’t you accept an obvious universal truth?

      I have a guy feeling that one of these days Zach will make the old URL format not work anymore. So here’s the same comic in the new format (found by going to the next comic, then the previous) https://www.smbc-comics.com/comic/2013-10-31

    The product ends in a 5 so it is odd and cannot be divisible by 4.

      Those damn people worshipping their rabbit god when we know for a fact the duck god is the true god! Now they refuse to believe the answer is 4.

        That other number is long and complicated and scary. I looked into my heart and found that 4 was the answer that spoke to me the loudest.

      This checks. I estimated it to under 1/5 billion.

      To the OP, some periods or commas would have been nice.

      To the 4ists, Yeah. Well, ya know, that’s just, like, your opinion man.

          I was just jesting. No commas, (or periods for overseas friends), made the cartoon harder, which made the post funnier.

      On a cosmological scale the real answer and 4 are effectively the same number.
