equations are so freaky man... like wdym I can do whatever I want to you as long as I do it to both sides... freaky ahh numbers....

too much math turns me into a magnus archives character

People need to make more fantasy worlds based on weird manifolds, we have so many disk worlds and sphere worlds and torus worlds, I want an RP^2 world where you set out to find the edge and come back with the opposite orientation

Hello beautiful, wonderful people:

In my class, we had to make a video about something really simple that we understood like the Pythagorean theorem. So the thing is if our YouTube video that we posted gets more than 200 likes we get an extra five points on a really difficult quiz that’s coming up. I will paste the video link below. Please give us a few other likes and share with anybody you know to get us more likes. We really need these grades points. Thank you so much. 

Send this to everybody you know please. It could literally be a great half dead uncle, or your cousin.

I do not care. I really want 200 likes. thank you for listening to my TED talks. i’m very motivational. 

I fucking hate quadratics and complex numbers. Just math in general. Makes me feel like a fucking idiot.

I had.... the weirdest nightmare(????) I've ever had??????

Ok so like

I was in a sophomore/junior high school class

And we were learning math (I FUCKING LOVE NUMBERS)

And the teacher was all like Today!! We're learning a new topic!!!! Cross Multiplication!!!! And everyone was so confused all like

What's multiplication?????? And so I, being the massive fucking buzzkill nerd I am, ask the teacher Oh! When do we learn Calculus? (In my school ppl usually start pre-calc junior/senior year) And everyone in the class stared at me like I was some kind of extraplanar freak

And then the teacher kinda softly whispered In college.... And then I started crying

And I woke up right after I started crying

Math 😔

Chapter four of my book The One and Only Ouroboros is out!

Also I know I haven’t posted in a while but I’ve just been busy, I was out of the house interacting for most of the day these past few days so I haven’t had much time to post

However! This chapter includes both an easy riddle and a complicated math problem!

Here’s the math problem and it’s answer

But you’ll have to read the chapter to see the incredibly easy riddle

It’s on Wattpad!

It's so funny to me that people think of Math/Mathematicians as being hyper-logical and rational. Like, have you seen some of the wild things hiding in the Math?

Did you know there are non-computable numbers?? (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Chaitin%27s_constant)

Did you know that there are things that are true, but we can't prove them??? (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/G%C3%B6del%27s_incompleteness_theorems)

Did you know that we can prove that something exists, and yet never actually figure out what that thing is?? (https://mathworld.wolfram.com/NonconstructiveProof.html)

Math is crazy. Math is wild. Math hardly makes sense, and when you think you understand the weirdest parts of it, everyone who hears you explain it to thinks you're a gibbering lunatic.

(please share more unhinged math with me, i want to see more scary math)

$ Price of White Diamond $

I did the math and assuming that Steven is 4 ft tall, her gem would cost 8+ billion dollars. ($814,143,253,696 dollars) You could also create 35 million 1-carrot diamond rings from her gem.

All of this is ignoring the fact that she’s sentient.

(I did this at 3 am)

Anyone else writes fanfiction instead of studying for their exams or doing their assessment. Like I was nearly done writing about how Athena influces how 5th century are treated. Then all of the sudden I have the urge to write cute little fan fics of my current fixation. does this happen to anyone else????

Yall I'm back from my math exam.

I hate math.

I am not very good at it.

And the math exam was a pain.

Welcome to 2025 everyone!

You may have heard it's equal to 45²...

But it also makes it 9² * 5², therefore 81 * 25. Which means it's technically 1 * 3⁴ * 5² — an expression made up entirely of numbers from 1 to 5 — isn't that cool?

This year is special, so come and get your dreams and make the most of it!!

The art is Alayna’s (sorry idk what her tumblr is) she made it during math for meeeeee

throwback to when my delirious five year old sister sat on the toilet, counted on her fingers, and declared with bone-deep wonder and joy that 7 + 3 is eleven

I used the poll options to narrow down choices for the ball/toy pit poll

The "Fandom" account on tumblr has posted an April Fool's Day set of polls asking people to guess how many of 3 different kinds of toys and how many toys total are in a container. Using the numbers given in the polls, I've found five possible answers to all the poll questions in which the numbers of each kind of toy add up to the total:

247 crabs + 277 horses + 235 paws = 759 objects total

247 crabs + 277 horses + 249 paws = 773 objects total

247 crabs + 313 horses + 242 paws = 802 objects total

239 crabs + 299 horses + 235 paws = 773 objects total

283 crabs + 277 horses + 242 paws = 802 objects total

Feel free to use this information along with your own (or someone else's, no judgement!) size/volume estimations to make your guesses! Or just guess, there are no rules!

Explanation under the readmore:

Each poll gives four potential answers. Assuming that the correct answers for how many of each object there are and the total number of objects are given as options in the polls, this means that the correct total would have to be the sum of three of the answers given in the polls about the individual objects, one from each poll. There are sixty-four possible combinations of one answer from each of the three four-option individual object polls. (If you start with all the combinations you have when you pick the first answer in the first poll and the first answer in the second poll, there are four potential combinations, one for each choice in the third poll. You have the same four choices and four combinations if you choose the first option in the first poll and the second option in the second, and so on for the third and fourth; this gives four combinations for each of the four choices in the second poll, so there are sixteen combinations for each option in the first poll, giving a grand total of sixty-four possible combinations.) I used a spreadsheet (linked here) to find what each of those sixty-four combinations added up to, then found the combinations which added up to a number that was presented in the "how many objects total" poll.

when i have trig homework but im watching movies and writing fanfic instead

YES, it’s like, 7 x 3 = 21 always served cunt and was the color magenta, the number 14 give’s chaotic bisexual and I am here for it.

I love em dashes (—) they’re the most underrated form of punctuation. they have so many uses, and they also feel like thursday

Math fact of the day the name for the line in-between the numerator and denominator in a faction is called a vinculum.
