What's your grade in math?

[@TheMonopolyMan.]

Since I’m online school it’s way easier so I got a 96

[@IS-py3dk]

95 % to 100% =A+ I love math

[@dewa5483]

No one’s replying to this question🤣🤣 Or maybe no one has seen it, yet. My grade in math is 5 bcz I was doing foundation🤪 I just got to higher 2 weeks before quarantine. Btw I’m doing GCSEs so I’ll see next year😜 Hope to get grade 9 (highest grade)

[@nightegal4267]

[@dinohall2595]

5:16 "I'm 141." 285: Am I a joke to you?

[@eikorana2146]

Yeah right, and so on and so forth. 1 variable has to have a value to have an exact answer

[@snehaaich666]

Dude......I got the SME answer

[@earlamlog7564]

It's 825 bc 5-3=2 and 2 times 4=8

[@world4500]

The “Toughest one!” Can have two answers: First one by the logic as explained in the video; Second, by this logic: 11x11 =121 (1+2+1)=4 22x22 =484 (4+8+4)=16 . . . On similar lines we can say; 33x33 =1089 (1+0+8+9)=18 So I think this question can have these two solutions, 🤔🤔!!

[@maya-hk7nz]

I think the answer is 36

[@sbaxter4207]

Did you pause the video for more time for any of the questions?

[@yukuhana]

18 is what I got as well, and I'm a genius per Bright Side ;)

[@cookiekat0309]

At 7:37, I moved the stick in the middle of 6 and turned it into a 0. Then just add! 0 + 4 = 4.

[@sbaxter4207]

3.025 x 3.025 = 9.150625 / 0.3025 = 30.25 11x11= 121 / 4 = 30.25 22x22= 484 / 16 = 30.25 30.25x30.25= 915.0625 /30.25 = 30.25 33x33= 1089/ 36. = 30.25 ... 44x44= 1936/64 = 30.25 55x55= 3025 /100 = 30.25 302.5x302.5= 91506.25/3025 = 30.25 ..... 3025x3025 = 9150625/302500= 30.25 30253025x30253025 = 9.152455217×10¹⁴ / 3.02560503×10¹³ = 30.25 3025000000x3025000000 =9.150625×10¹⁸/3.025×10¹⁷ =30.25

[@gameryl3900]

For the matchstick question, you only need to change the 6 into 0

[@mariadelmarcaparos2324]

same answer

[@alexwalker8440]

Or the 6 to 5 and the right 4 to 9

[@octane9150]

7:31 you can also put the lower stick of the left side of the six and take it above the four, so you get 5 + 4 = 9

[@yingzhou8548]

How come this guy has a video for everything? Maths, science, animals, pizza, the letter v?

[@joni22262]

Julian Zou it’s a media company

[@Capital.E.06]

7:30 you can also take one stick out of the 6 to make it a 5 and add it to the 4 to make it a 9 and it will say 5+4=9

[@sushiljain7876]

there is another way too!

[@freeadvertisingmaster1018]

No, I thought the same way but I realized to make 9, you need another stick on the bottom.

[@yanliu834]

You can also take one mastic from the six and make it a zero And It will be 0+4=4

[@yukuhana]

3 riddles have alternative answers: 7:12 match stick: 5 + 4 = 9 12:25 Take 2 off 5: 5 - 2 halves = 4 14:10 Toughest One: 33 x 33 = 1089 = 1+0+8+9 = 18

[@numbers_boi8638]

I figured the match stick one out immediately towards this alternative way

[@relaxingnoises26]

Ok thanks

[@savitaprasad521]

You know , in the matchstick puzzle, you can also move a match to make the '6' 0 that will be 0+4=4

[@kanziayman843]

That means that you will move 2

[@mimivuong1543]

@@kanziayman843 No u wont, just rotate the middl!e match of the six to form a 0

[@Lakshmi_jakku]

I solved only 3 questions but the moment they asked the toughest question I solved it immediately It's a piece of cake

[@biswasannie68]

srsly /its ez

[@01LincLS]

10:45 Instead of summing the two numbers then adding one, you COULD; Take the difference between the current number previous numbers then add them to the current number. Example: 14-8=6; 8-5=3; 6+3=9 9+14=23 Also, I found several different solutions to many of these riddles. Guess the degree in math is paying off.

[@user-bs1kp9wd6j]

14:10 💪🏼 Here's my solution- 11×11 --> 121, 1+2+1 --> 4 22×22 --> 484, 4+8+4 --> 16 33×33 --> 1089 1+0+8+9 --> 18 Have you thought about that? 😊

[@jonzoppi1394]

That’s beautiful

[@jonreed6548]

My first solution too!

[@irinapavel9278]

Did anyone realize that at the matches one (7:13) that isn’t the only answer? U can get the middle one from the 6 and put it on the right side and make a 0 so u’ll get 0+4=4 🤨

[@bertukantsegaye3045]

I know I realised it from the thumbnail

[@HyperSniperPlayz]

Or take one from the bottom of six to make it five and put it on top of the last 4 to make it 9 5 + 4 = 9

[@MathemaTeach]

Nice video, i am sure everyone loves the visual, not to mention the mind stirring silence ( to give us time to think). this is a great help for our students, i teach math in high school through online too, so i came up with my channel, but i will definitely take some of these in my classes when school will be back, hopefully soon. Thank you so much.

[@acesofaros]

There’s mor than one way to solve the matchstick problem

[@loomianpikk5269]

*more

[@Stevenescobar93]

You are correct, if you move the lower left matchstick off of the 6 and put it on to p of the 4 on the right side of =sign then you get 5+4=9

[@angelniky3135]

You are correct.

[@JuperLuperBruh]

Or 0+4=4

[@johnk4515]

The 3 digit number one can also be 285 Timestamp: 5:17

[@ACTHEGOAT]

Exactly. Great minds think alike

[@Savio2012]

For 7:30 ridlle you can also move the bottom stick of 6 and make the other 4 into 9 5+4=9

I fell bad for you the answer is 10

[@jebthepocket]

I did the last one a different way when you multiply the answer by 30.25, you get the product of the numbers so 33*33 divided by 30.25 was still 36 for me

[@jayzerofficial5329]

I love it❤

[@daveygravy2]

I found another way to solve 8:06 you take the stick from 6 and make it a 5 and make the =s 4 a nine

[@numanawanmalik3070]

So interesting and confusing riddles. 🤔🤔🤔🤔🤔🤔🤔🤔🤔🤔🤔🤔🤔🤔

[@roughneck371]

4:55 Why is 285 not a possibility? It fulfills the requirements imo.

[@octane9150]

7:55 0215 is also correct. 2 mirrors 5 as well

[@geobntz4196]

7:30 I put a match stick from the 6 and made the 4 at the end a 9

[@sushiljain7876]

well,I took the stick from 6 and put it on 6 so it made 0+4=4

[@vaibhavgupta9354]

plz make a video on how to solve megaminx cube

[@wbug]

7:34 We could make the 6 a 5 by taking one of the lower matchsticks off then we can put it on top of the 4 to the right of the = sign to make 5 + 4 = 9

[@epicporkapis0959]

To the Matchstick riddle you could also take 1 from the six to make it 5 and put it on top of the 2nd 4 to make it 9 5+4=9

[@alanac3764]

“Who else likes watching BRIGHT SIDE😍❤️” (I hope you are doing well!)

[@viperfrag]

There are 2 answers in the question with the matchsticks. You can also make the 6 to a 5 and put the matchstick at 4 to make it 9.

[@rishikthakadu5838]

In the matchstick Question we can also remove the bottom right edge of 6 and keep it in on 9

[@ananthakrishnaca5870]

7:30 take the middle matchstick of 6 and place it in the opening part. So it becomes 0 0+4=4

[@nathanluca3072]

Wait, so if you do like math, doesn't that mean it will be complacated?

[@swasthfit8368]

Interesting logical reasoning questions.

[@iplaybridge_3397]

For the 3 digit one, you can also do 285 which also works 5:06

[@Spenstatzboi]

Yeah that’s what I thought too

[@DarKAngEl-gj9nz]

Love it!

[@aymusentertainment3586]

What happens to plants in math classrooms? They grow square roots. Brilliance in its top level Didn't expect that

[@wolfrayet25music_official]

7:34 you can also take lower left match stick on the figure six and move it to the top of the sum 4 and you get 5 + 4 = 9

[@RP_101]

Yes I was just gonna comment that...! And we are right!

[@four400]

For the matchstick puzzle, I just moved the vertical line on the plus sign to make the equals sign say “does not equal”

[@nathangrove2820]

I thought the one at 4:57 would be 285. 8 is four times as big as 2, and 5 is three less than 8.

[@JosiahFickinger]

I had another answer for the match stick one. If you slide the middle stick in 6 clockwise, it will make 0 + 4 = 4

The matcstick puzzle has 3 or 2 answers( if you knew that , you are a legend!)

[@Lynxieo]

[@sparkzz926]

you know he put that one in at the end after telling us a similar problem earlier just to make us feel better

[@princexyviere2244]

5:07 my answer was 285 but i also thought of 141 but didnt go with it since it was too simple, myanswer is still correct tho 8 is 4 times bigger then 2 and 8 minus 3 is 5 ao 285.

[@colejw2007]

in the 6+4=4 problem, i found a different way take the bottom left stick off of the 6 and move it to toe top of the 4 This creates 5+4=9, which is also true

[@emcee9627]

8:28 flip the equation upside down and it becomes true.

[@musarratjahan8011]

7:39 you can also make 0 + 4= 4

[@alpanajha6817]

For the 3 digit no. , it could've been 285 as well

[@joshuatalbot9361]

5.40 it could be 0 and 10-99

[@relaxingnoises26]

I like that 😁

[@m3cha131]

The 141 could also be 285 because 2x4=8 and 8-3=5 Originally Dino Hall's comment, just wanted some more people to know this if they're every asked this question

[@dan-alexandrupricope9864]

7:38 But you can move a stick from 6 so you make it 0!
