The person who decided of this should be fired. Same for 77+33

[–] [email protected] 5 points 4 weeks ago (2 children)

Why?

77 + 3 = 80
80 + 30 = 110
[–] tired_n_bored 25 points 4 weeks ago (2 children)

77+33 must be 100.

Proof: 7+3 = 10, so 77+33 = 100

[–] eager_eagle 6 points 4 weeks ago

either that or 1010

110 is nonsense

[–] [email protected] 0 points 4 weeks ago (1 children)

Just moving the 3 over makes this obvious: 77 + 3 = 80. Taking the zero off both 80 and the remaining 30, you get 8 + 3 which is so obviously not 10, therefore not 100.

[–] tired_n_bored 10 points 4 weeks ago

Do you think I was serious lol

77+33=100 is an Internet joke

[–] [email protected] 1 points 4 weeks ago* (last edited 4 weeks ago)

Wrong it's 100

Weird how one answer gets more upvotes

[–] [email protected] 3 points 4 weeks ago

Lmao I lost my shit at this

[–] [email protected] 31 points 4 weeks ago* (last edited 4 weeks ago) (1 children)

99 ÷ 2 = 92 though, right?

[–] Aermis 19 points 4 weeks ago

Found the OSRS player.

[–] AgentGrimstone 30 points 4 weeks ago (5 children)

Let's double check

225 x 2

Solve for x

[–] [email protected] 57 points 4 weeks ago (1 children)

Answer: X = Formerly Twitter

[–] [email protected] 17 points 4 weeks ago (1 children)

So it's value is essentially zero?

[–] [email protected] 8 points 4 weeks ago

So… 22502 is the solution!

[–] LouNeko 16 points 4 weeks ago

Let's put 2 on the other side.

225 x 2

Now 2 wears 225 as a hat. Which means x is kinda funny.

[–] [email protected] 6 points 4 weeks ago* (last edited 4 weeks ago)

Lefthand side is empty, "empty" is not a number, hence x is NaN as well.

When people don't learn roman numerals at school anymore...

It's 10, plain and simple

[–] [email protected] 28 points 4 weeks ago* (last edited 4 weeks ago) (2 children)

I don’t understand why it’s upsetting:

500 ÷ 2 = 250
50 ÷ 2 = 25
250 + 25 = 275
[–] recapitated 9 points 4 weeks ago (1 children)

I think it's because people want patterns to exist even where they don't. But this one is extra sensitive. The declaration becomes even less interesting in non-base-ten systems. I'm not even sure why 225 would be intuitive to anybody. I guess that's what makes it a shit post.

[–] [email protected] -5 points 4 weeks ago* (last edited 4 weeks ago)

I mean the top level post is just incorrect, this is a shitpost making fun of people who aren’t capable of basic calculus. I don’t wanna be like the c/whoosh gal but obviously 550/2 = 225 it’s almost ridiculous that this whole post became so big because of people thinking they know better

[–] [email protected] -2 points 4 weeks ago

I see you doing incorrect math I have to downvote

[–] [email protected] 18 points 4 weeks ago

But is 250 + 25

[–] jaybone 8 points 4 weeks ago (1 children)
[–] misterdoctor 40 points 4 weeks ago (2 children)

I think it’s because if you take the numbers individually, 225 looks like it would be half of 550 because 25 is half of 50.

But in actuality, half of 550 is 275.

[–] [email protected] 4 points 4 weeks ago* (last edited 4 weeks ago)

I don’t know where you got your doctor from mister but it certainly isn’t in mathematics. The post is making fun of people like you defying the laws of basic calculus.

[–] lugal 1 points 3 weeks ago

If 275 is half of 550, then what is half of 275?

Checkmate atheist

[–] Dasus 5 points 3 weeks ago (1 children)

Oh shit, I was gonna block the poster because this is absolutely shit even for shit posting. But then its him and I'd lose like 30% of lemmy.world content.

Goddamn

Get a hold of yourself man

[–] TriflingToad 8 points 3 weeks ago (1 children)
[–] Dasus 2 points 3 weeks ago

I respectfully disagree

[–] [email protected] 7 points 4 weeks ago (1 children)

Don't staunch your heavy heart. It's okay to feel things, it won't make you week. Cry if you want to it will be okay.

[–] [email protected] 1 points 4 weeks ago

I finally have a reason to use my weeks of accumulated sick leave.
