My math skills and ASD


I am beter at algebra or trigonometry then any basic math. It took me three years to figure out how to do geometry.
I once in grade 8 figured out how many nano seconds a person would live if they lived to 100 years old and I did it all over lunch break by hand with no calculator. Do you realize how big a number that is. their are 100 nano seconds in a millisecond, 100 milliseconds in a second, 60 seconds in a minute, 60 minutes in a hour, 24 hours in a day, 7 days in a week, 30.44 days in a month, 52 weeks in a year, 365.25 days in a year, for 100 years. that is one hell of a large number and I figured it out in 40 minutes.
