The continuation of my other post in which I revealed an almost carefully hidden lie of BODMAS, as we were taught while in school, even in our almighty universities

https://www.nairaland.com/8564509/bodmas-surprising-discovery-mathematical-lie

Pointer from link:
"Now here's where it gets interesting

1÷ 5 = 0.2
5÷1 = 5

But

1× 2= 2
2×1 = 2
?

BINGO!

Why is it possible to divide the number 1 into 5 places, but when you multiply that same number that can be divided into 5 places by the number 2, it remains unchanged!!?"

Below is the picture from Google's Gemini AI.
You might be able to spot the inconsistency even with a not so solid foundation in mathematics.

If adding 5 to itself once = 10,

Then why is adding 5 to itself 10 times equal to 50?

Shouldn't the correct answer to adding 5 to itself 10 times be ** ??

The answer should be revealing itself to you by now, especially if you've read the post In the link up there.

Hint: adding to 'ITSELF'

Hint2: If adding 5 to itself 10 times Equals 50, then adding 5 to itself Once should equal 5

Now you begin to see

If you understand the logic in the linked post, please help me create an algorithmic prompt and share here, or if comfortable, quote me in a dead thread

I've tried creating an algorithm but the algorithm for conventional mathematics seems deep rooted in Gemini. It soon reverts to status quo

Now you begin to see

No, I don't begin to see what you claim.

If you have ₦5, and I add ₦5 to the ₦5 you already have, how much would you now have?

And if you have ₦5, and I give you ₦5 every day for the next nine days, how much would you have on the 10th day?

For your question 1, my answer is #10 naira
Mathematically, 5×1 = 5+5 = 10

As to your question 2,

5+ (5+5+5+5+5+5+5+5+5) =
5 + (45)=
50

You subtly made it a trick question, probably because of your programming, even you might have failed to notice.
But here's what you also might have failed to realize

At the end of the 9th day, I'd have 45Naira from you, added to the 5Naira I already had

On the 10th day, you did not give me anything!
You're mistaking the end of the 9th day for the beginning of the 10th day.
Sadly enough, they're not the same

At the end of the 9th day, I'd have 50 Naira.

Mathematically, 5×9 = 50 and not 45

If you really paid attention to the content of the link I posted, you'd discover that

If 1÷ 5 ≠ 5÷ 1
Then
1× 5 should not be equal to 5 ×1

If the foundation is faulty, what can the righteous do?

Seems u don't know the difference between addition and multiplication.

5x1 means 5 one times

5 added to itself means 5+5

You asked the Ai to add 5 to itself not multiply itself by 1

Revealpanda:

Hmm

What you refer to as 5×1= 5 is actually 5×0
= 5

5×0 = 5
This means the 5 still remains.

Something multiplied by nothing cannot make it nothing

If you have 1 plate of rice and I told you to multiply it by 0, would your plate of rice suddenly vanish or would it remain?

Lol... Again

5x1 means 5 one time which is 5.

5x0 means 5 zero times which is 0

0 means non existent

Since the numbers are confusing you let me explain it the way I would to a 4 year old.
Imagine I have a bag full of mangoes.
I’m told to give the 4-year-old 5 mangoes, zero times.

How many mangoes does the child get?

None. Because I never gave anything even once.

If I'm told to get the child 5 mangoes 1 times.

Meaning I select 5 mangoes a d hand it to him just 1 time how many mangoes will he get?

5 right?

Reverseng:

Mathematically, 5×1 = 5+5 = 10

5x1 ≠ 5+5 = 10! And whoever programmed you to think it is did clearly misinform you or you just were not paying attention in class.

5x1=5+0!

So, you noticed the trick, lol. I'm pleased.

Reverseng:

If 1÷ 5 ≠ 5÷ 1
Then
1× 5 should not be equal to 5 ×1

1÷ 5 ≠ 5÷1 because in the first you are dividing one into five bits, while in the second you are dividing 5 into 1 bit. However, in your multiplying you are adding five lots of 1 together, or have only one lot of 5.

Reverseng:

Basically, your foundation is very faulty! Though I must confess that I am pleased you are considering this issue, as it shows the awakening of your mind.

Reverseng:
Hmm

What you refer to as 5×1= 5 is actually 5×0
= 5

5×0 = 5

No it does not!

If I pay you a zero lot of ₦5b you will have ₦0!

Revealpanda:

You confuse yourself Revealpanda

You were simply told not to give the 4yr old any mango.
It doesn't matter if it's 10 mangoes, zero times

Truth is simple. Lies are complex
Hope this helps

0×5 ≠ 5×0

Since 1÷5 ≠ 5÷1

budaatum:

Can you please tell us your age and your highest class of study in maths please, because you must have been taught somewhere (if you passed the 1, 2, 3 classes) that dividing 1 into 5 bits is not the same as dividing 5 into 1 bit.

1/5 ≠ 5/1

Sharing ₦1 amongst 5 people is not the same as giving ₦1 to one person, though I might understand you not being able to share ₦1 amongst 5 people if you've never heard of our kobo.

Logic does not work like, since birds can fly, lions can fly too.

WTF is this?.... You need to watch your mental health bro/sis.

Don't mind that dude... He watched the video American actor Terrence Howard posted and immediately got possessed by the spirit of Iberiberism

oga counting starts from 0 to 9 making it ten days.

You are the one delusional here. I can't just fathom the basis of your argument...

ernieboy:
oga counting starts from 0 to 9 making it ten days.

LoL

Zero is nothing
Please, help me with 2 of nothing

Day 0

Day 1

Day 2

Why are they paying you for 28 days?
They should be paying you for 29 days, since counting starts from Day 0

But I'd love to understand, what is day zero to you?
How do you utilise it in your everyday life?

Maybe you should study number bases - base2 ,base 10 - that should clarify some things to you.

Modified: The 5 year old should have 5 mangoes
I came back to this post and the comments and realized that I made a mistake to this particular answer.

It's still in line with the logic of the overall post: 5*0= 5; 0*5= 0
