I wrote a (very long) blog post about those viral math problems and am looking for feedback, especially from people who are not convinced that the problem is ambiguous.
It’s about a 30min read so thank you in advance if you really take the time to read it, but I think it’s worth it if you joined such discussions in the past, but I’m probably biased because I wrote it :)
Forgot the algebra using fruit emoji or whatever the fuck.
Bonus points for the stuff where suddenly one of the symbols has changed and it’s “supposedly” 1/2 or 2/3 etc. of a banana now, without that symbol having been defined.
This meme is specifically about the implicit multiplication because the article it links to is about that too.
But you are right there are a lot more “viral math” things than just the implicit multiplication problems 🤣
