Cal Does Algebra (a Quickie)

Upon finishing the last of his Smarties tonight, Cal expressed a math sentence out of the blue.  Here's how it went:

Cal: "4 times a equals 20."

Me: "What's a?"

Cal: "5."

Perhaps it was the Smarties that made him smarter in the moment, perhaps he's just a natural. I figure it's the latter and anticipate having to call on Uncle Perry for Math assistance sooner than we originally thought.
