Geocache Description:

My niece, who lives in Arizona, shared with me over Christmas vacation some of the 3rd-grade math problems she must be able to handle in the curriculum at Archway Academy.  They are described as "70 Must-Know Word Problems Level 3."  I decided to create some children-friendly mystery hides in Maryland, where I live, and in its neighboring states.  This is the first in the series, which will incorporate some of those must-know problems.


Do NOT go to the given coordinates.  Instead, answer the two questions below in order to find the values for A and B in N 39 30.A W 78 02.B.

At an Archway assembly, 942 people attended; 596 more students than faculty attended.

A: How many students attended?

B: How many faculty attended?


You can validate your puzzle solution with certitude.
