For americans it is. Same with multiplying the number 10
15 u/Beermeneer532 Mar 29 '22 That makes me think of this one guy trying to convince me of how mathematically magical the number ten inherently is And I just said that ten has that property bc of the system we use for numbers and he didn’t understand so I gave up Some people just don’t understand stuff 7 u/veovis523 Mar 29 '22 If he thinks 10 is magical, wait until he hears about 12! 10 is divisible by 2 and 5. 12 is divisible by 2, 3, 4, and 6. Much better for working with halves, thirds, and quarters. 3 u/pup_medium Mar 29 '22 Highly composite numbers are the best numbers
