The question was: Add up all the numbers up to 100.
Der jungen Karl Friedrich didn't guess. He reasoned:
100 + 1 = 101
99 + 2 = 101
98 + 3 = 101
97 + 4 = 101
96 + 5 = 101
In this way, with the 100 numbers I can make 50 pairs, and every pair totals 101.
So all 100 numbers add up to (50 times 101) = 5,050
They say he was something like 5 years old at the time.
Assuming 3 -4 means 3/4 , etc : The answer is 13/4 since(1/2) + (1/2) = 1 and(3/4) + [ (1/2)+(1/2) ] = 1 3/4
no if 1 plus 1 equals 2 then 2 plus 2 equals 4.
4
9+9; 1+17; 2+16; 3+15; 10+8; etc etc
1^2 + 1^2 + 1^2 + 1^2 + 1^2 + 1^2 = 1 + 1 + 1 + 1 + 1 + 1 = 5
58 plus 58/1+115/100+16, etc
One plus one is two. It can be expressed mathematically as 1+1 = 2.
It equals 7
1/2 + 1/2 + 1/2 + 1/2 = 2 2 is four halves.
1+1 or 1 plus 1 is equal to 2.
30. 2+3+5=10, 4+6=10, and 2+4+1+1+2=10.
2 9 1 plus 1 is 2.
