Can You Do This Math Equation 43-13 = ?
You knew the answer in your head almost immediately , right?
Now try the "New" maths....... http://youtu.be/wSVTzQlqbp0 |

Potentially useful techniques applied without intelligence to make simple arithmetic much harder while they claim it's easier. As to that example, I would have noticed the 3 in both and so made the subtraction simpler. I would have no need to write down ANYTHING but the final result. BTW, just yesterday I needed to do math with exactly those numbers (13, 30, & 43). -- Mark Lloyd http://notstupid.us/ |

What psychotic drug addict thought up that method? Maybe it was one of those geniuses who are so smart they get bored with doing math the normal way, and have to make something difficult to be interesting for them? That kind of math is so brilliant it's stupid, or so stupid it's brilliant. That looks like something an astrophysicist would come up with in some sort of formula. When you make simple math hard that's just stupid. Who decided the old math was bad? If you had to do math quickly this procedure would be SLOWWWWWW. It gives me a headache just thinking about it. |

Kids are just going to say "I have a calculator on my phone" so they might as well make it as complicated as they can. |
