guru25:

bro, the answer is 5100

"take" is different from "take away" in english language
besides, i ve never heard that "take" means "take away" in maths. Please another person should confirm this with a prove.

Take 1000 and add 40 to it. could also be translated to "take 1000 oranges and add another 40 oranges to it."

I stand to be corrected.

thanks

correct. Simple english, simple maths

D ans is 3100. Explanation: d intial numb was then 1000 and then add 1000 it becm 2000 take away 1000 = 1000+1000+40+30+20+1000+10=3100.

you ar mixing it up....we hav 5 "1000"..then 40+30+20+10...dat makes it 5100...simple

I can't stop laughing since the beginning of this thread. Please is enough oooo.

The correct answer is 5100. All those guys sayin somethin else please u think too much and u are thinking wrongly. Na wa o. Primary 4 maths.

3020

6000

haibe:



Take 1000 and add 40 to it.= 1040

Now add another 1000.=2040

Now add 30.=2070

then Another 1000.=3070

Now add 20.=3090

Now add another 1000.=4090

Now add 10.=4100

And then add 1000=5100

Simple as XYZ.....

Too much waste of time here ....add all the 1000s and add all the other li2 sums to it finish.

Carsonv:

Integers are supersets of real numbers. Integers span from -infinity to +infinity while real numbers are from 0 to +infinity.
I concur to every other thing you said.

Na wa ooo. I cant beliv dis...and u call urself a computer scientist?u should be arrested for this mathematical blunder. integers are subsets of real nos. There are +ve and -ve integers. Only natural nos(+ve integers) starts from zero to infinity.Besides who taught u dat u cant add integers and real nos. Infact only some prog languages require parsing before u can operate nos of different types.

peeps be taking dis serious like it some kinda Jamb question... see quadratic and simultaneous equations flying around. BUAHAHAHAHHAHAHAHHHAHAAAAAAAAAHHHHAAAAAHHHAHAHAHHHHHA

Chei!
Make Dem return this guy school fees ooooo

dem no need to return ur own na,u no dey pay fees na! Smh

aux409: oga, if I say take 1000 naira, buy suya and add 40 naira take buy garri and cold pure water, how much I give u so? Miss am make I flog ur yanch

Oga/madam first to post, abi your maths teacher die young ni?

question redirecting to google!!!

5100

Redhot111: you dull, if u no dull, den ur brain dull. D statement said take 1000 n add 40 to 'IT' dat 'it' tells u dat d 1st figure stands. U no get brighter grammar? Den na u even start by callin anoda person 'Olodo' agbaya like u.

na u dull pass to quote me with pidgin wey u claim say u sabi grammar smh

3100

Real numbers are supersets of integers.In other words integers are subsets of real numbers.Real numbers comprise both rational and irrational numbers.

why would i take and add all this one by one. you wey dey ask question... take all the takables then add all the add-ables, just gimme two figures to add. no dey stress my brain...

make i copy the popular answer jooor...


the answer is 5100

dat all

Well my answer still be 4100,if u like insult me na OYO b ur own!!!

Now add another 1000.
Now add 30.
then another 1000.
Now add 20.
Now add another 1000.
Now add 10.
And then add 1000

What is the total?

Pls don't modify your post, its just for fun, lol.[/quote]

haibe: correct answer is no doubt 5100

ur correct man. Did u expect an artist/botanist to b sound in maths? As he so claim dat d 1st 1000 will b minus, if u do dat u will get, 3100(4100 - 1000)....wich is very wrong sef. Ans is 5100

There's no need to overthink this.The question simply says "take" not "take away".Implying that you have the 1st 1000.The answer's 5100.Shikena!

5,100.

The right answer is 4100
If you look all through the statements of adding 1000, e.t.c
add was specifically stated but got to another and they only said and another......dont go assuming to add that

Well, if 'take' does not mean 'takeaway'....d answer should be 5100....

maballack: The right answer is 4100

The word another in a sense means to carry out a previous action or to follow a previous trend.

so if you see another 1000, it means add another 1000 since addition is what has been taking place previously.

Look back again to all the lines even when another was used again....there was ADD preceding it

I would have agreed with you if the another carried the same value as the prvious then you shld repeat the same action

bt since it was a dffrnt value ...there should be an ADD to the clause
