51 has to be the non-prime number that feels the most prime
Everything is divisible by 17
Only issue is what the result is ;)
Oh yeah? Then what’s 34 divided by 17, smart guy?
Jesus 42
What blew my mind is this. What is the sum of the infinite series
1, -1, 1, -1, ...
One answer is to look at it like this:
(1 - 1) + (1 - 1) + ... = 0
Another answer is to look at it like this:
1 + (-1 + 1) + (-1 + 1) + ... = 1
But then it gets weirder. What if you add two of the series together like so:
1 + -1 + 1 + -1 + ...
____ 1 + -1 + 1 + ...
(Please ignore the underscores. They’re just there because otherwise Lemmy messes up the whitespace.)
All the terms cancel out except that first 1 again. But this time it’s the sum of two of these series, which means that the sum of one series is 0.5 and somehow not an integer.
The correct answer is that you’re not allowed to add up infinite series like this so that’s why you get contradictory results if you try.
Someone’s never played darts, I see.
Or at least not well.
Wait until they find out 68 is also divisible by 17.
That’s why you always go for multiples of 6 plus or minus 1 that are not multiples of 5 or 11.
57 / 19 …
