Post; Fuzzy Math


This is an easy one.

This must be done in your head only. Do NOT use paper and pencil or a calculator. Take 1000 and add 40. Now add another 1000. Now add 30. Add another 1000. Now add 20. Now add another 1000. Now add 10. What is the total?







Most people get 5000. Do it with your calculator for the real answer 4100.

I got 4100 but then I'm artillery and can compute azimuths and deflections in my head.
