MathFest Day Two Challenge Problem

I hope everyone's having a good morning and is ready for more MathFest! Here's the Center of Math's MathFest Challenge Problem for today. 

We'll have the solution up later in the afternoon today. Remember, if you're at MathFest, and you tweet with the correct answer to the Challenge Problem, the hashtags #MAAthFest and #WCoMChallenge, and something that shows us how much of a good time you're having in the capitol, you can have a chance to win some Center of Math gear! 

UPDATE: The solution is now available! Check below the break if you want to see it.






If you didn't solve this one in time for the giveaway, don't worry! There are two more Challenge Problems, tomorrow and Saturday.
