”If you remove one-third of 6 you get 9,“
Mad mathematician Merv Mainchance, assured his class.
The children, accustomed to Merv’s lunatic lapses, solved the conundrum immediately.
Can you?

Well, I definitely can’t. I have no idea how to answer this one, and it almost gave me a headache, thanks member Suzi! But I believe you lot can answer this one!

He's talking about Roman numerals. If you remove the "s" from six, you're left with "ix", which is 9 in Roman numerals.
