A breaking discover for all people. From young kids, to old adults, and in between. As a group of mathematicians discover that 2+2 equals 5. There is a lot of work that goes into the equation that these mathematicians discovered. Luckily, they were able to simplify it. Basically, when you add two and two, there is a variable (x) that is behind each 2. Now, “x” in this equation always equals 1. However, solving for x shows different answers.
2x + 2x = 4
Combine like terms
4x=4
divide by 4 on each side
x=1
Now that doesn’t make sense does it?
One is not equal to four. So how does it make sense??? These mathematicians have discovered that by adding the 1 to the 4 to equal out the imbalance, you get 5. Proving that 2+2 equals 5. School districts around the world a quickly changing their lesson plans to accommodate for this issue. This is a truly shocking discovery.
