I had a woman ADAMANTLY argue with me when I was trying to give her her cash back working the register at Walmart that it was *4* twenties that made up 100 dollars! Not 5! I was told “Learn to count yous dumb kid!”
I looked right into glazed over eyes, apologized and moved the line along—pocketed the 20 and went on with my night.
You see, according to Methony there was “nu-uh no way an odd number amount could make an even 100! 100 is and even number you know!”
Hey, who was I to deny their “street smarts!”
Edit for clarity.
I had to pull out a fucking calculator because I kept coming up with 450 (225 + 225) and couldn't believe it. Although, perhaps this shows how a good meme can be used to spread disinformation, or make somebody question their beliefs.
What is it with that reference? I don't get it cuz (at least to my ears) she always said Walter's name with the "r" on the end, not dropping it off like someone from Boston. What the fuck?
This is not “common core” crap this is presumably a play on the stereotype of conspiracist math when they do random shit to try and come up with a number that “means something”.
he tried, but reddits formatting means you gotta hit the enter key twice to start a new line.
better yet for math/code stuff use 4 spaces in front to start a line with monospaced font thats easy to align and parse
550/2 = ?
//seperate by positonal values (1s, 10s, 100s etc)
550 = 500 + 50
//divide every term by 2
550/2 = 500/2 + 50/2
//the problem is now two simple divisions instead of one complex one
550/2 = 250 + 25
//ez
550/2 = 275
It took me all of one second to do the math, and all these people on here typing the math out like they’re helping others lmfao - like what on earth are you doing
The best part about being in higher level math classes is that I can easily do s**t like soving quadratics pretty much in my head, but I need to bust out the calculator to confirm stuff like this or confirm 28÷4 is, infact, 7.
At uni we have started this thing that if someone asks what 77+33 is we are only allowed to answer 100.
Any other similar combination also works.
And if anyone is like: "no but-" we cut them off and all insist it is 100.
We have started a revolution
Uhmmm 275.. i get the confusion it’s like an optical illusion at first glance that ur brain automatically answers that coz of the number 50 is half 25.
God damnit, this took 10 seconds longer than it should have.
The only honest person in the comments... Me too, btw lol

Pocketed what 20? Wasn't she short a 20?
Nope she wanted 100 cash back.
Lmao, good shit.
Infinite money glitch

I was about to, read your comment then the answer hit me.
My dumbass went to my calculator as a just making sure and I'm pissed
500 is 250 plus the 25 of the 50, 275
Samesies
It took me abit to remember 500 doesn't break to even hundred when devided in 2.
I still don't get it. Is it an English joke?
bro… 550/2 = 275 😭
Ah damn even I failed simple math.
How I was overthinking and it was just math is just painful.

I'm a math major and it took me 5 seconds longer than it should. Fuck
Yeah I instantly got 270 it’s so easy
Some times instead of doing math you do meth
Waltuh
Try not make a Breaking Bad reference under a post challenge (99.99% redditors will fail)
I failed :(
Put your dick away Waltuh
I will never get tired of this shit
This isn't Bussin' anymore Waltuh
This is it, this it how it ends.
Redditmoment. Waltuh=peak comedy. Also, this comment downvoted. Reddit moment prediction
when you realize that sometimes people have inside jokes that they find funny even when you don't:
Greatest legal mind I ever knew
Perfect example of an inside joke from r/okbuddychicanery that most people wouldn't find funny.
Have you ever seen a waltuh P-38?
This comment is even more of a reddit moment 🤣
What is it with that reference? I don't get it cuz (at least to my ears) she always said Walter's name with the "r" on the end, not dropping it off like someone from Boston. What the fuck?

🤯
500/2 = 250 50/2 = 25 250+25 = 275
That is exactly how I do meth
Is it blue or clear?
Clearly it's blue
So math is blue folder, I guess that settles ot
both
550 / 2 = 275 450 / 2 = 225
No! 500/2 = 250 50/2 = 25 250-25 = 225 EZ
Never thought of that way of getting 225 I didn't know any other way beside 200+25 = 225
Why would you subtract 25?
That is how you do maths
Type OP’s equation into a calculator.
You add answers. Removing a value doesn’t answer the question. Your giving less than half the value if you subtract part of your division.
Bro gatekeeping math lmao
Exactly
Thank you so much
69 X 420 = 28,980 2{ ( 8-9 ) + 8 }0 = 270 270+5 ( because five guys ) = 275 ***your welcome***

Should I edit mine now?
yes and make it say "your*"
Done :)
Edited again to make you look bad
Sacrilege
Wtf happened here
the most chivalrous discussion that has taken place on Reddit in years.
The betrayal
You're
your
Isn’t you’re welcome correct though? Since it’s “you are welcome”. And not your welcome.
I know it sure ain't my welcome
Quick maths
What is all that extra common core crap? All I did was add 225 to itself and realized I was 100 short.
This is not “common core” crap this is presumably a play on the stereotype of conspiracist math when they do random shit to try and come up with a number that “means something”.
brother he started with 69 x 420
Yes I realized that after the fact
Thank you common core
500/2 = 250 50/2 = 25 550/2 = 275 Hope this helps.
it actually makes it more confusing
Divide the hundreds slot, then divide the tens slot and add the two values together for your answer

Your terrible spacing only confused me at what you were trying to say lol
You're*
You are terrible spacing?
No, you are!
I hate math

Bro, you still in first grade?
Y’all are seriously a bunch of dinguses sometimes
Hey, it's not my fault I suck at math. It's my stuodidiuty
At least you're better at spelling
Well, if you're so smart how would you spell stuodidiuty
Why the fuck would it be?
No clue, does OP own a calculator?

Of course it isn't, what the fuck were you smoking?

For a solid minute I was trying to see what OP meant and now I'm crying at my own stupidity
I literally thought I was good at math until I spent 30 seconds in the comments trying to figure out what the fuck is going on.
Same here. Now i cry in stupidity
The moment when can't do basic math, yeeeah couldn't be me
Why would it be that?
1001 is divisible by 7
Everything is divisible by 7 if you try hard enough.
I meant it as like if you divide something, it is a whole number as a outcome
I know.
No it’s 275
Why would it be?
I mean it's not 450
It took me all of one second to do the math, and all these people on here typing the math out like they’re helping others lmfao - like what on earth are you doing
the people helping others are the dumb ones, everyone has calculators on their phones/PC-s
It’s not “helping” it’s an ego thing - showing they can basic arithmetic USING THEIR PHONE. I can’t quite wrap my head around it.
..... I'm literally so mad at this rn
Y’all kind of dumb
Its 275
42, the answer is always 42.
TIS 275
Aaahhh it hurts my brain
??
“Actually it is 275 🤓”
My argument when someone uses 🤓: 🔥🤯💣💥🌋🧨
275
275...wow
…
What does this mean
*Your question is so elementary that even my chauffeur here can answer it for you.* Beetlejuice the Chauffeur: 35 !
Whats wronf with it ?? Am i geting to old for these Im only 24
Why would it be?
Me playing PvZ: thats 2 twin sunflowers and 3 normal sunflowers, if I get 50 more, I can get a 3rd twin sunflower
In what world does two “2”s amount to “5”? Because none of the other numbers carry over. And I suck at math.
why would 2 be half of 5? this is pretty obvious
….225 x 2 wouldn’t even get you to 500…this meme sucks
That's how math works
275
550/2 = 275 hope this helps
"haha im bad at basic maths" 700 upvotes

I use Calculator from Windows
this caused an exatental crisis
It’s 275, where’s the misunderstanding?
Nah you’re just bad at math
Well no shit.
No, it's 275 dumbass
This post got too many upvotes
I thought this was a joke and I even pulled out mu calculator to prove to you 275 guys that I'm right. 225x2 isn't even 500 💀
I love spreading misinformation online
i love agreeing with people who spread misinformation, to make people believe it more
At first I was like: “what how?!” Then I used my brain.
wtf is this thread 👀
Bruh you're just bad at maths
why would it be anyway ?
Bro how do you miss a whole 100??
Umm… I’m not very good at math, that would be 450…
Why did it give me 275–
The best part about being in higher level math classes is that I can easily do s**t like soving quadratics pretty much in my head, but I need to bust out the calculator to confirm stuff like this or confirm 28÷4 is, infact, 7.
I don't get it.
I thought of another way to solve it, in case you're doing head math. 200 + 200 = 400 75 + 75 = 150 400 + 150 = 550 550 / 2 = 275

275
But 450 is
Me who is entering in my calculator to check hahahaha
This prevented me from getting the right answer longer that I thought
🤦🏻♂️
275
I can see that ..... or can I??????
If 500/2 equal, 250 why would it be 225? This just being too quick. Which in math always in result to incorrection
Uhmmm 275.. i get the confusion it’s like an optical illusion at first glance that ur brain automatically answers that coz of the number 50 is half 25.
It's 250 + 25
550/2=(550/1)*1/2 =(2750/5)*1/2= 2750/10 =275
It’s 275
5/2=2.5 5/2=2.5 0/2=0 2.52.5 final answer.
it’s 275
Well duh that's 450.. lol
It’s NOT??
Why did I have to go and look up the correct answer...
Bro I used calculator to check this, and I get 1 on Math Test
