Ok, it's time for an expert to chime in (Ph.D. Mathematics, Caltech,
1976). "space divided into anything" is the same as "dividing number
of projects by shop space", i.e. (# of Projects)/(shop space). So,
Scott wins unless his number of projects ("anything") is zero. In that
case we enter a whole different realm of mathematics and Scott needs
to get to work!
I'll leave the question of measurement units to the physicists out
there. Joe Parker - a PHooey Doctor, not a Money Doctor Los Gatos, CA

The rule was projects per shop space, not shop space per projects.
So you're dividing number of projects by shop space.
