Another in the series of signs from lover of mathematically significant road signs, David Slauenwhite. After introducing RSM to Massachusetts. (Ed.: Don't worry, there are 40 more opportunities to get the vaunted gold star designation of the first sign in any state not to mention other countries!)

You should expect a sign that points us to the land of knowledge that is Amherst College would incorporate some more advanced mathematics. This sign uses the often overlooked Modulo (mod) function to make it's point.

$63 \bmod 15 = 3$

This sign is found in Montague Township, Massachusetts.
