Yooooo that’s funny. She’s resourceful man.

seriously though this is amazing, and narrating it Animal Planet style would be a really fun way to do a movie like Zootopia.

[amaya-ai]

Holy shit. I need to rewatch this in audio description now.

But..... I see nothing wrong in either of those pics? Like they are both looking professional??? Who the heck make these rules?

The Opposite of The 5 Stages Of Grief

[indiecup--fordeactivation-deact]

The answer is 1, why is everyone a delinquent?

[pernoninnoobz]

Y'all please, learn your pemdas (or bodmas or whatever you learned it as)

It’s 16

[celtic-pyro-deactivated20230725]

*sigh*

Parentheses equation is 2+2, which is 4.

Now we multiply by 2 to get 4x2 which is 8

8 DIVIDED BY 8 is 1.

I have no fucking clue how you can get 16 out of this. I don’t think you’re bad at math, I think you just need glasses.

[vaporwavevocap]

It’s 1.

[kingoftartesoss]

It’s 16.

8 / 2 * (2+2) = 

8/2 * (4) = 

4*4 = 16

You do the parentheses, then you go left to right.

[vaporwavevocap]

That isn’t how this works…..

PEMDAS

8/2*(2+2) (P = Parentheses)

8/2*(4) (M = Multiply)

8/8=1 (D = Division)

@kingoftartesoss​

Use Mathpapa calculator if you still don’t believe me.

[jooshthepunished-deactivated202]

No, Riley.

M isn’t in the original problem but 8÷2 still needs a resolution. You have to solve 8÷2 as-is after (2+2) no matter what.

So you’re not following PEMDAS by factoring x4 into 8÷2.

It’s literally this simple.

[vivairi-deactivated20190813]

I, uh, I think it’s 1, actually.

[robert-the-redhead-lover-deacti]

Plug it into a searchbar, or a scientific calculator that waits until the whole thing is input & that’s the answer.

[dangerbooze]

1

[robert-the-redhead-lover-deacti]

No need.

[dangerbooze]

Everyone on this post:

[babycharmander]

@nonanalogue can you solve this for us because I swear to goodness the answer is 1 but this post is making me doubt my brains

[theinsidiousdice]

Happily!

So the problem is two-fold: first, order of operations as most people are taught it is a lie, and second, the original problem is written very ambiguously.

Let’s drill down into that first point.

PEMDAS! Parentheses, exponents, multiplication, division, addition, subtraction. Everyone’s taught to do operations in that order! Except that’s not really right. As a math teacher of mine put it, “it works for now, but you’ll find out I was lying in a few years.”

The problem is that multiplication and division are the same operation, and addition and subtraction are also the same operation. Division is really just multiplying by a fraction, and subtraction is just adding a negative. With that in mind, it doesn’t necessarily make sense to do some multiplication arbitrarily early in the problem before the rest! As a result, here’s the bottom line for that point:

Both 1 and 16 are right.

How can that be?

Well, that brings me to the second point: the expression is written very ambiguously, so as to maximize confusion! It’s also why I don’t like using the division symbol when a fraction will do just nicely.

Observe two other ways we could write this expression:

The first one resolves to 8/8, which is 1. The second resolves to 4(4), which is 16. Both are right, only because the original expression is vague.

The sad thing is that everyone hates fractions, when actually they make life so much nicer!

I feel like people forgot in math class, there was a point where two answers were needed or were right and we had to solve them both ways. And this is that instance.

Such cutie pies! 😭❤️

[chumbie]

i hate bobby flay bc i saw this one episode of beat bobby flay where this older italian woman was kicking his ass hard throughout the episode and in the final challenge they had to make pizza and this goddess of cooking decided to make her own dough from scratch and the judges were even like “oh no she’ll never be able to pull this off!!!” and she did it. and what did bobby do? bobby “bitch” flay used premade dough. PREMADE dough. like the dough you can get at the grocery store. and he fucking won. he WON. beat bobby flay? more like kiss Bobby’s ass. beat bobby flay off while he sucks his own dick. Fuck him.

[dallyowally]

Plus Gordon Ramsay said that Bobby refuses to do a beat bobby flay against him for charity. He’s a punk

[amaya-ai]

I forgot all about Bobby flay...

Huh, smart and useful

[blackqueerblog]

This is straight up kidnapping. We imprison citizens that kidnap children but the government thinks it’s OK for them to do? 

[amaya-ai]

Fuck ICE for doing this type of shit. They have no right to racially profile and assume a person being illegal or not. Especially freaking children???? Like how the fuck are they even suppose to prove themselves of anything as a child? Also it’s not like everyone is just carrying their documents and shit. This is just stupid and ridiculous. So much for “Land of the free”.

Drawing Wrinkles

I made a tutorial-thing about drawing clothing wrinkles - something I’ve had a few requests for.  For all the banality of wrinkles, they’re an expansive topic. Anyway, these are some previews. The full tutorial is available to all $1+ Patreon supporters. You can find it here!

Love this artist and love their comic!

lotta people in the notes think this is fake because they never had the local electric company come to their high school and do a demo of the HORRIBLE EXPLOSION that happens when mylar balloons make contact with power lines

[maxuel-adams]

Mylar balloons can and WILL make powerlines go boom! We had a fire start just across the road from work last year cos someone let a dollar store mylar balloon go and it tangled in the powerline. Took a couple weeks for them to get it out….
