Taking 6 pills 2018-05-29
From Dave:
My motives are simple, I want to get revenge on my brother who, unbeknown to me, repeatedly cheated when we played on-line Scrabble! Can you help? - he has posed this question knowing that I'll struggle to get the solution. Question: He is taking 6 pills a day, if he takes the pills in a different order each day, how long will it be before he takes the pills in the same order on the same date again? I think leap years might come in to it! Will I confess to using you guys? - I'll think about that one.
