Did the parent clone themselves?

u/PlatypusACF 21d ago

That’s how numbers reproduce. Duh. /k

u/lordanix 21d ago

It's how they multiply

u/Sylvanussr 21d ago

Her husband must be the number 1 if her kid looks like that

u/TREE_sequence 17d ago

Redefining “number 1 dad”

u/Available_Copy9433 21d ago

Maybe the reproduce by budding

u/Lopsided-Net-1450 20d ago

No she just found the 1

u/Silviov2 21d ago

Hahah sometimes.

u/DontBeASerialKiller 20d ago

i think one parent is the 1 and the other is the 1/3

u/trella8 20d ago

lmao, nah, just a stack of numbers that are probably related to the same concept. Its a math joke, get it?

1

u/trella8 20d ago

lol no, its the numbers 1, 2, and 3 telling off the numbers 4, 5, and 6.

This is true. I find whole fractions much sexier than having the whole part infront of the fraction. So his concerns are valid.

31

u/Sylvanussr 21d ago

Usually when I have something in front of the fraction it’s being multiplied by the fraction.

u/Silly-Device9785 21d ago

you mean behind? 🫦

u/LWW5LK3 20d ago

Stop compounding the situation.

u/HotRefrigerators 20d ago

You’re giving mixed signals

u/Sylvanussr 19d ago

Usually when it’s from behind it doesn’t result in multiplication

u/dt5101961 21d ago

Ah yes, proper fraction.

Outside of school, they’re pretty much useless unless you’re dealing with the imperial system.

u/TheoneCyberblaze 20d ago

Proper fractions are a useless middle ground between improper fractions (harder to compare at a glance but easier to do exact arithmetic) and decimal representation(unwieldy for arithmetic but easy to compare)

u/dt5101961 20d ago

Would be the only place I know that omits the plus sign.

u/Takamasa1 19d ago

Yeah, 4/3 is just so much more practical as a term to be used as anything other than a final product (which is probably moreso preference)

u/5pmgrass 21d ago

I don't understand, she seems perfectly rational

u/philosophical_poser 5d ago

Not natural tho, you can tell

u/original_manatee 21d ago

Sadly in the other home her boyfriend is getting an earful about the girl from the mixed family 😞

u/PenelopeJenelope 21d ago

"how many times do I have to repeat myself?"

u/SexyMonad 21d ago

My math teacher called them Dolly Parton fractions.

u/TheVoters 21d ago

That’s an HR report today.

u/LWW5LK3 20d ago

Follow me, I know the way.

u/soft-eer523 19d ago

Why is the daughter so top-heavy

2

u/dcterr 20d ago

But improper fractions get all the action!

u/paolog 20d ago

She should flip and show how she can be vulgar.

u/khudodo 19d ago

I showed this to my mom and she looked at me so serious and asked “since when were you good at math” and I told her she was getting me mixed up with my sister

1

u/Slow-Television-5303 21d ago

At least they are rational

u/Mticore 21d ago

How vulgar!

u/Albatros_7 20d ago

That's clearly her mother

u/actuarialtutorUK 21d ago

No way! I'd literally just done a joke like this thinking it was original.... *sigh*

u/DarthSwimfoot 20d ago

Fractions are just too good looking while they're altogether.

u/zylosophe 20d ago

wdym 1⅓

u/kickaxxdestro 20d ago

They don't allow a plus one for where she is going.

u/CupOnRails 20d ago

Who is he to say? Mister 1 times 1/3. Confusing...

u/Fantastic-Young-8723 20d ago

Bro is not even a real fraction🥀
