*How many roads must a man walk down?: The mice chose this Question as the one they would claim to be the correct one.
Having return to the supercomputer Earth, albeit in a prehistoric stage, [[Ford Prefect]] got [[Arthur Dent]] to randomly pull Scrabble tiles out of a bag. This resulted in the Question: "What do you get if you multiply six by nine?"<ref>From the [[Douglas Adams]] book [[The Restaurant at the End of the Universe]].</ref>
==Behind the scenes==
It has been noted that in base 13, 6 multiplied by 9 will equal 42. [[Douglas Adams]] later joked, "I don't make jokes in base 13".<ref>Number 42 Explained by Douglas Adams - Also Base 13 Explained, h2g2; link [http://h2g2.com/entry/A4288584 here].</ref>
