Both of them.

One. The rest go to the teacher's lounge, kind of like the free cookie basket for everybody to take from at lunch. Hell, even the school liaison officer probably grabs one for him/herself.

Poorly stated problem. It should be:

"A 4-year-old boy takes nine bags of weed to school. In class, he pulls the seven bags of weed out and gives the 5 bags to his teacher. The teacher confiscates all 3 bags. If the police declare the street value of the bag of marijuana as $eleventybillion, how much profit did the boy lose?"

The answer is simple: "Today, a 4 year old boy was reprimanded at school for talking about marijuana during naptime. In related news, there was apparently a miscalculation in the amount of post-naptime snacks that would be required at the school, leaving the pre-schoolers without snacks today. Teachers seemed very sedate and somber about the situation..."

"This student had no idea what he brought to school or what the substance was," he added.

Wait... they didn't arrest the four-year-old kid for possession under the guise of a zero-tolerance policy? I guess it would be a stretch to put him on the sex-offender list for this though.

All of them.

The police keep their weed in the evidence room in case of inspections. They're not as stupid as you think they are.

It's not making it to the evidence room that is the problem. It's staying in the evidence room.

P.S. Remember when Principal Skinner offered Bart the choice of everything in the Confiscated Contraband Locker at Springfield Elementary, including complete collections of MAD magazine? Or was that in the Bongo comic books? It's hard to remember, what with all the episodes and hundreds of comic book stories. People who say that the Simpsons aren't as good as they used to be haven't checked out a comic book store in the last ten years or so. They're still producing--they're just splitting their production between the TV show and The Simpsons, Bart Simpson, one-offs, cross-overs, Radioactive Man, seasonal specials, etc. Counting the comics, they're at episode 1,500 or thereabouts, and still going as strong as ever. And I'm not even counting Futurama. What a franchise!

It's FARK word problem time: If a 4-year-old boy pulls nine bags of weed out of his jacket pocket and hands them over to his teacher, how many of those nine seven bags will make it to the police evidence room?

You misstated the problem.

The item most likely to be found in a police evidence locker is the lunch of the guy who has the key to the police evidence locker.

There's usually more than one key, but only one key is official, so the guy with that key never loses his lunch.

There are nine keys and one key ring to rule them all.

maskreet: Damn. Submitted this link yesterday with a much shorter headline. Figured because I went to Hanover back in '79, cosmic forces would align or something and I'd finally get a greenlight. Ah well.

I just hope it wasn't one of those stupid headlines where the amount of weed found decreases every sentence.

Um...how are we to really know that he actually had nine bags?

You know, nine bags went into police custody but the kid *really* pulled out eleven.

Nah. Went with "4 year old aims for higher education".

Ah. Not bad.
