Axl (the axolotl, not the semen receptacle) watched Abby pace around her blackboards. Suddenly the solution hit him. Climbing to the surface of his pool he quickly fogged up the upper portion of his tank facing Abby. With the tip of his tail he gingerly etched in the fog the number that would solve all of Abby's problems. He was careful to write it backwards so that Abby could properly read it. Then he tapped on the tank to get her attention.
Abby heard the tapping and sauntered over to see why one of her specimens was interrupting her train of thought. Then she saw it.
"By golly the amphibian's got it. Of course. It was right there all along."
