knowledge - Replace the question marks with one single word



This one needs a lot of lateral thinking



In the equation below replace all the question marks with one single word (same word at every question mark).


Then show that the equation is correct.

Answer




Use ?=ROT to get:

ROT(ROT5(68))[ROT5(105)]=ROT(ROT5(68))[P]/ROT(ROT5(68))[Q]

which becomes:

ROT13[ROT5(105)]=ROT13[P]/ROT13[Q]

Now the clever bit, 105=CV in Roman numerals, and P->C, Q->D in ROT13:

ROT13(CV)=C/D

PI=Circumference/Diameter
