Although some people have gone through the same math programs throughout school and have done well, mathematics education in the US needs to change because the US is becoming further and further behind other countries in math.
My roommate and I like math... Just a little bit
The goal was to write 0-20 using only 4 4's. Here is 1-10 and we ran out of room.
That's awesome! I wish I loved math that much!
ReplyDeleteWell, I hate math. I was always good at it, but I still don't like it. That's great that you enjoy it though. I'm interested to see where you take this. It sounds interesting!
ReplyDeleteI think this is a pretty cool topic! Since you enjoy it so much I'm sure you'll have great insights for the paper.
ReplyDeletegood topic!
ReplyDeletewith your 4 wall.... couldn't you have just done fractions till inifinity?
1 = 4/4, 2 = 4+4 / 4, 3= 4+4+4/4 etc?
just seems to be adding and subtracting 4s for no reason.
Well you can only use four 4's. Example 4+4-4-4+0. Then one is (4+4-4)/4... and you keep going.
ReplyDeleteI hate math too but I think this could be an interesting paper because you are interested in it!
