Wait until you learn of 51/17.

Thanks, I hate it

With 17, I understand that you're referring to how 299,999 is also divisible by 17. What is the 51 reference, though? I know there's 3,999,999,999,999 but that starts with a 3. Not the same at all.

57 / 17 = 3. That messes up with my brain.

That it is. And it's not just my math that is wrong.
