So I think he’s using base 4 since he has one hoof on each of 4 legs. (10 in binary is 2 decimal).

Well, at least the bartender didn’t ask “why the long face?”

Llamas invented octal…

The fool. He could’ve placed a bet that his horse could talk!

Why would a horse use base 10? To avoid being shipped to the glue factory after causing his owner to lose a $50 bet.

Of course, of course.

I don’t see why he lost. He never said the horse could do arithmetic correctly…

Hooray for New Math

New-hoo-hoo Math

It won’t do you a bit of good to review Math

It’s so simple

So very simple

That only a child can do it!

All your base are belong to Mr. Ed.

I love the randomness of this strip!
