I will take your box lunch, cube each item within it, and repack it to fit into like 2 lunchboxes. No consent required

11 is the only 2-digit number that does not scare itself when looking in a mirror

Except for 12407.

Everytime I find a number related to someone I run it in wolfram alpha to check if its have something interesting. Like our professional registration number, my exboss has 3^7 and mine is prime.

well all that good luck was spent on aligning all the math bullshit, so not surprising.

Huh, looks like it's true!

Next one is not.

A good response is to go and binge watch Numberphille

I know some numerology folks with mushrooms.

Lube and paper towels? Or just the lube? Or just the paper towels?

I remember 11/11 back in 1111 - those were the days!

Ah. The birthday of Todd Howard's favorite cash cow.

Pretty much everything in this post just says 2025 in different forms.

> frightful_hobgoblin discovered algebra

Open excel (or any other spreadsheet app) or - at a push - the calculator app.

Type in 45 * 45. You will get 2025. Then try 44 * 44 and 46 * 46. You don't need a PhD to be able to do that :)

Then you can use the same app to add up 1 - 9 and get 45, which will verify most of the post.

The cube thing is a little more complex, but you should be able to work it out using the multiply and the memory function.

(I checked it before I posted it :))

"Complicated" math is built out of simple math.

Squared and cubed are just ways of saying the same number multiplied by itself twice(squared) and thrice(cubed).

The reasons why they are called that is a reference to the most common use of that math, a square has 2 equal dimensions, and a cube has 3. So when someone asks what is the area of a square with side lengths of 5, it would be 5 x 5, or the volume of a cube with the same side length would be 5 x 5 x 5.

So taking this shorthand 2^3, and converting it into the full "simple math" equation it represents would be: 2 x 2 x 2.

The other main thing about complicated math is that there is an agreed-upon order in which we write math.

If you haven't gotten that far in math class, don't worry about it yet. The whole point of learning math is that it is best to learn it in the correct order. Generally, anyone struggling with math has accidentally skipped a step along the way of learning it. All the future things you learn are dependent on knowing the previous foundational knowledge.

So anyway, long story short.

This is saying: 45 x 45 = 2025 And that the result of 1 x 1 x 1 added to the result of 2 x 2 x 2 added to the result of 3 x 3 x 3 added to the results of 4 x 4 x 4 added to the results of 5 x 5 x 5 added to the results of 6 x 6 x 6 added to the results of 7 x 7 x 7 added to the results of 8 x 8 x 8 added to the results of 9 x 9 x 9 would be 2025.

And now you can see why they developed shorthand.
