    Is it?

    You asked for the sum of the numbers on the blackboard.
    50 is one of the numbers.

    Ask the question correctly and you might get somewhere,
    especially since the board may have been partially
    erased.

    Is 1/3 part of {.3, .33, .333, ...} ?

It's still legal to go .sigless.
