This meme is actually the perfect analogy for Internet misinformation, just because something you see online is popular and easy to understand by basic logic doesn't always mean it is right

[jorcornel]

Describing it as a "reign of terror" feels extremely accurate

*Biggest Math quotes ever.*
“2 + 2 is 4, minus 1, thatʼs 3, quick mafs.”
“Whatʼs 9 + 10? 21!”
“77 + 33 = 100.”

To me, 77 + 33 = 100 feels right because of the way I visualize math. When I see 7 + 3, I kinda subconsciously imagine the 3 slotting into the 7 to form a 10. As a result, I think of it less like a math equation, more like a puzzle--7 and 3 are two puzzle ends that lock together to produce 10. As a result, 77 + 33 feels like the same puzzle pieces being put together, meaning my mind naturally wants them to form a clean answer, 100, despite me logically knowing that it should be 110. Fascinating stuff, really.

2013: 9 + 10 = 21
2022: 77 + 33 = 100

History really repeats itself

[TheEngieTF]

This meme is basically the sequel to 9+10=21

[Thmat]

Can’t believe being bad at elementary level math is now a meme lol.

[Romaren_]

Im pretty sure this comes from when you where a kid and learnt that 33 + 77 isn't 100 and you thought that was a lie since 3 + 7 is 10.

The question I'm thinking of right now: If we get the math gods to make 77+33=100, what would 70+30 be then?

[sekritdokumint]

It does feel intuitive for it to be 100, but when you break it down into simpler numbers - 77+33 > 7+3(zero on the end) and 7+3 you get 10(+0) + 10 which equals to 100+10. It really depends on how you look at maths, if you simply look at it and try to quickly add it in your head you can easily mistake it for 100, but when you break more complex numbers instinctivly into more managable forms it becomes very obvious. Just like its obvious 9+10=21

[froggothecommentator]

"It appears math is not always right. Sometimes its just plain wrong"
"How can you prove that"
"Simple, by using math"

[disgdb]

It’s very easy. Just do it like 70+30+7+3 if someone confuses you with a question on 1938+1038, then just do it as 1000+1000+900+0+30+30+8+8.

33 + 77 = 110 is way more satisfying to me than it equaling 100

[klot]

i was watching this while on speakers and eating dinner with my asian parents. they have already filled out my adoption papers and im now not only an orphan but i am also maidenless.

[alecsbizarrememes]

This mathematical error along with 9+10 being 19 instead of 21 tells us how maths is not always right, contrary to what people on the internet say.

[PRODUCER_M.C]

After all of this, im confident to say that 777 + 333 equals to 1000.

Edit: just created a war in the replies 😎💪💪

I actually feel discomfort when I see 77+33 = 100. Like wtf bro, I feel like taking a bath when I see it.

[Snookbone]

One lesson in school when I was around 6, our worksheet's first question was 5+5, so I answered 10.
The next question was 6+6. I insisted to the teacher for an hour that the answer was 11.
