New JerseyFirst Sign

Jamie Thingelstad, the founder of Road Sign Math, finally puts another state on the map with a recent visit to New Jersey. This sign was spotted nearly 8 months ago, but it took a long time to capture the mathematically significant sign.

Simple math here resulting in a prime number!

9 + 2 = 11

This sign is on the New Jersey turnpike headed southbound past Newark. The GPS coordinates are approximately N40 34 03.4 W74 15 19.6. See sign on map!

Ed.: New Jersey is the 29th US state to make it on Road Sign Math!

    of course 11 mod 9 = 2 is a cleaner expression

    Modulo is no longer an accepted function in Road Sign Math.
