I was never a big math guy, but in today's episode, we're going to talk about not my mathematical failures, but the teachers or the question designers.

Sometimes they're the ones who get it wrong.

Welcome to the Council of Trent Mondays and Wednesdays.

We talk apologetics and theology, but on free for all Friday, we talk about really whatever I want to talk about.

And today I want to talk about

some viral math questions that I've seen online, that people do double takes. Maybe they're

poorly worded. Maybe they're just frankly, they're incorrect. And so that's what I want to talk about.

I was never a big math guy. I did the best that I could. I tried Calc AB senior year because I wanted to just go to

calculus camp with everybody because I was like the cool thing to do. I made it about five weeks

into the semester and I was like, I thought the limit was infinite or isn't the limit infinite for

everything? No, apparently it's not. Had to drop out of that. Probably set myself up for failure in pre-calc by playing snakes on my

Ti-83 more than paying attention in class. So a rough go for sure.

So when I want to talk about this, there's a few problems that I've seen online that get shared around.

And it's just funny, you know, usually they're poorly worded or they're just kind of strange

math stuff.

So here's the first one.

It's probably like from elementary school.

They're doing a fractions.

And it says, question number eight, reasonableness.

Marty ate four six, four over six.

Marty ate four six of his pizza, and Luis ate 5-6 of his pizza.

Marty ate more pizza than Luis.
