18 is 4.5 times LESS than 81

Sorry, but a lot of you answered 81 - that would be 4.5 times MORE - can only accept 18 (and no decimals - two digit number is 18 not 1.8..... )

Sorry Edski, you won yesterday and were therefore ineligible. You have to miss a day when you win

Not that it should matter Kazza, but I was a math teacher for a long time and 1.8 is a two digit number as well as 18. Both are perfectly viable answers.
