Here's a simple arithmetic question: A bat and ball cost a dollar and ten cents.
TUCSON — In a community college classroom here last June, on the first day of the term, the instructor in Jared L. Loughner's basic algebra class, Ben McGahee, posed what he thought was a simple arithmetic question to his students.
Thus, estimating human resource requirements was a simple arithmetic exercise and was not related to local variations in workload or overall efficiency of resource use.
It is a simple fact of arithmetic that any politician from any minority group, not just an African-American, who aspires to national office has to avoid offending the majority.
It is a simple matter of arithmetic that when one source of demand in the economy — in this case, the government — cuts back its spending sharply, G.D.P. will fall unless another sector steps up its level of spending.

With these two calibrating steps involving only 64 IRF measurements, the mean flight time of the IRFs for any source-detector pairs that is taken as the time-origin is calculated with a simple arithmetic: 〈 t 〉 s, d = 〈 t 〉 s, 1 + 〈 t 〉 1, d − 〈 t 〉 1, 1.
An alternate approach is to consider a simple arithmetic mean of the three scores (HRD-Mean score).
The latter is obtained by a simple arithmetic (differential) mutation operation over a set of parents (e.g., x1, x2, x3) selected at random or by quality, based on one difference vector, i.e., υ = x1 + F· x2 - x3).
