Sorry, Wrong Number Like each of the other half-dozen intelligent adults who pitted their multiplication skills against General Electric's new electronic computer "OARAC", Syracuse housewife Connie Hodgson came up with the wrong answer. OARAC, built by G.E. for the U.S. Air Force's Research and Development Command, can multiply two ten-digit numbers together in four one-thousandths of a second. Average time for the six human contestants was eight minutes. Fastest time was four and one-half minutes. Mrs Hodgson, who got her answer in nine minutes, made two errors. In case you have a pencil and stop watch handy, the correct answer is 74,742,805,859,551,230,625. (NOTE: As a time-saving device, we'll tell you that Mrs Hodgson forgot to carry a one in adding the third column from the right, and that the fourth row of figures below the line should read, from left to right, 172907843350.)
