We were in Calculus class, and the problem sin(x)/n was left on the board from the last class. The teacher meant to put an x in the denominator I guess. We solved it like so:

sin(x)/n

The n terms cancel out

sin(x)/n = six = 6

Whatddya think?

Someone must've traveled forward in time and stolen it from us...

i have no idea. the joke is at least as old as the early 90s. i just googled 'til i found a pic of it.

i'm guessing this was a local thing done by a few students somewhere. if you wanted a one-off, you might could make a graphic and upload to one of those t-shirt sites (cafepress maybe?).
