Looking for a math wiz!

Actually, there are two.
Eh? Not to sidetrack the thread too much, but how could there be two
wind answers?
For example on the E-6B, to solve this, you'd set TRACK up, grommet
over GS, and then look for where your TAS arc meets your drift
correction angle (HDG-TRACK). The vector back to the grommet is the
single direction and speed for the wind.
