The following comes from my Mensa page-a-day calendar (no wisecracks) for March 19:

The storage box for my baseball cards has room for most of my cards, and, on a nearby shelf, I keep the extra 16 cards that do not fit. If I expand the length of the box by 30%, I’ll have room for all my cards, plus enough room to store another 20 cards in the future.

How many cards do I currently own?
