I have one question.
My neighbour that is in the second class of primary school showed me this.
Ok, it goes like this
5+5+5 = 500
(This numbers are digital (made from lines), you know, like those on a digital clock. Change one line so the equation will be correct.)
I must admit that I havenīt did it. And then he told me, ugh, smartness is so relative. I also asked 2 math teachers and they didnīt do it.
P.S.: You canīt say that 5+5+5 is not 500. You must leave = as it is. And I have posted this here so right wingers will also be able to try.

No problem, I already know the answer, so you can post the answer with no second thoughts.

"No problem, I already know the answer, so you can post the answer with no second thoughts. "
Naaaaa i think i will kep the answear to myself! lol
(just an excuse to forgive my lamy capicitys!)
Ugh, I made a mistake :=)
"5+5+5=500" is not solvable
itīs "5+5+5 = 550".
Now change one line so the equation will be correct.
I will wait for a while with the answer, maybe somebody knows the answer.

Gottit!
5 - 5 + 5 550
I don't think that's what you had in mind, though, coz you said it wouldn't work with 500 instead of 550
That would make 50...
this land is our land
You should begin bowing at this time.
In the second plus sign, add a line connecting the top of the + to the left arm of the + making a 4 so that the equation then reads:
5 + 545 = 550
There were two Reigns of Terror, if we would but remember it and consider it; the one wrought murder in hot passion, the other in heartless cold blood; the one lasted mere months, the other had lasted a thousand years; the one inflicted death upon ten thousand persons, the other upon a hundred millions; but our shudders are all for the horrors of the minor Terror, the momentary Terror, so to speak; whereas, what is the horror of swift death by the axe, compared with lifelong death from hunger, cold, insult, cruelty, and heart-break? What is swift death by lightning compared with death by slow fire at the stake? A city cemetery could contain the coffins filled by that brief Terror which we have all been so diligently taught to shiver at and mourn over; but all France could hardly contain the coffins filled by that older and real Terror... --- Mark Twain
505-5 = 500
That rerquires me to move 2 lines but I am not sure of what the definition of lines is.
515 - 15 = 500

every two verical lines equal equal one line on a digital clock.
The + was turned into a 4 by taking the right side of its horizontal line and placed vertically on its left horizontal line I don't know how that happened or where i went wrong it was perfect before i submitted it, i bet it has something to do with the amount of empty spaces maybe Malte can fix it

sorry about that i tried to fill the empty spaces with periods to see if that would help but i hit back instead of edit, and on top of that it didn't work.
Something else has occured to me is the horizontal and vertical line in the + four lines or just two? If it's two my answer and exploitedclass's answer are both wrong

Before we all forget about this post and move on with our lives, is Turnoviseous going to post the answer? Please.

That came out wrong. That square thingy was meant to be a "not equal to" sign
I don't suppose you feeble minded individuals would like me to post a real problem. No, I am not talking about a simple little minded teaser, with such a easy, nonsensical solution. I am talking about a real problem that actually takes some brains to solve. If you want, I will make the first one relatively easy. Let me know.
would you feel that you are a little full of your self normin old matey?
Do you run around naked, so that people look at you? so that they register that you exist? I wouldn't be surprised... oh, unless you have a crap body - so instead you use thenet, somewhere where no one can see your face. And you attention seek on here instead. I wonder why though.. i suspect some childhood thing is having a great affect on our life...
Captain Blackadder: You see, Baldrick, in order to prevent war two great super-armies developed. Us, the Russians and the French on one side, Germany and Austro-Hungary on the other. The idea being that each army would act as the other's deterrent. That way, there could never be a war.
Private Baldrick: Except, this is sort of a war, isn't it?
Captain Blackadder: That's right. There was one tiny flaw in the plan.
Lieutenant George: O, what was that?
Captain Blackadder: It was bollocks.
I didn't think someone as incapable as you would appreciate a challenge. That became evident when you stopped debating me honestly and resorted to attacking me personally with peacenicked. By the way, in addition to being smart I am also sexy, and have no trouble getting laid. It just so happens that I enjoy making people like you feel small. It should be noted that not everyone has the same motives for using the internet as you, James. Don't forget that fact, because it is an idiotic assumption.
I will post the question here for any that wish to attempt it.
Air enters a pipe at 60m/s. At this point, call it point A, the air has a temperature of 27degrees Celsius and a pressure of 2.813 bar (absolute). The pipe has a diameter of 7.5cm. Later the diameter of the pipe decreases to 5.0cm. At this point, call it point B, the temperature is 60 degrees Celsius and has a pressure of 2.543 bar (absolute). What is the velocity of the of the air at point B. Hint: the air is close enough to standard conditions to assume Ideal behavior.
"I don't suppose you feeble minded individuals would like me to post a real problem."
i'd say you have some problems with yoursocial standing.
"No, I am not talking about a simple little minded teaser, with such a easy, nonsensical solution."
hahaha, who cares man? but anyways - again, i'd say problems are evident.
Again, i'm flattered that you realize i exist...so nice of you to take some time out of getting laid...
And why do you "enjoy" making people "feel small"?
I'd say that was rather troubled..so come on, spill the beans. Who is it that made you feel small?
