As I mentioned in my OP I found this ' conundrum ' on a RISCOS website. It=
=20
was posed by a UK maths teacher, he was surprise that his pupils iPhones=20
came up with the answer of 2, and pointed out that the correct answer is 9.

I'll have to hunt around for the website again, but it was an RISC ARM=20
