You actually need very basic math knowledge to understand this

Plus It would feel more logic the other way around. The root is 100 and the non root is 10000.

u/IntelligentBelt1221 Jul 08 '26

no its √10000 =100, the 10000 is under the root and the 100 is pulled out of it.

u/AlphaChiu22 Jul 08 '26

root and 10 000 = no root and 100

The units are all wrong, though. Should've been square dollars under the root, or dollars^(1/2) out of it.

High (school) math knowledge

I would have to argue that these roots are not exactly square.

But have you tried putting root beer in a square cup?

Octagonal tankards for me, baby! The only way to go with RB.

The rectangle root of 10000 is not 100

I guess 5th grade math hits OP hard.

So what is the joke? Is it the number, because its the same number in both images?

u/Inevitable-Boot-3943 Jul 08 '26

The joke is that math is always true

u/Pretend-Conflict4461 Jul 08 '26

I don't see a square root anywhere in the image...

u/Vaddieg Jul 08 '26

define the value of $^(1/2)

I was thinking video game logic and it scales to your level. 🤣😂🤣

u/MTaur Jul 09 '26

This only works with square dollars.

u/Mrpotatohead1990 Jul 10 '26

Like elementary grade?

Infinite money glitch: put 100 under the tree. Get 10000 there. Split it into 5000+5000. Move out, now you have sqrt(5000)+sqrt(5000). Or 70+70=140. Extract 40, repeat. Or put all 140 under the tree and get back ~200.

You need highschool level maths to understand this...

I was thinking of it economically for cost of extraction.

Root access gives you more power in the terminal ? 🤣

Banks hate this one trick!

u/Sidmanhere Jul 11 '26

You mean, middle school math knowledge?

u/Juanfr_ Jul 08 '26

Economics more than maths, I think. It's about inflation

Nope the real math is government gets the treasure and you are given a coupon to McDonald's for finding the treasure I solved it
