  Yeah I know that. But I was feeling confused as to why it was here. That’s why I was feeling trolled, because it made me doubt basic math for being posted in a memes community.

    Alternatively, the poster calculated the wrong answer, thus assuming this guy was wrong.

    They did the joke wrong. To do it right you need to use the ÷ symbol. Because people never use that after they learn fraction, people treat things like a + b ÷ c + d as

    a + b
    -----
    c + d
    

    Or (a + b) ÷ (c + d) when they should be treating it as a + (b ÷ c) + d.

    That’s the most common one of these “troll.math” tricks. Because notating as

    a + b + d
        -
        c
    

    Is much more common and useful. Do people get used to grouping everything around the division operator as if they’re in parentheses.
