Where IS Halogrinder these days?
Stuck in the trunk of a car on a lift I imagine.
What the actual fuck, I went cross eyed with that shit. Start with 368, now subtract the tens from 293...wtf? That is either incredibly poorly worded, or good lord i'm glad i didn't grow up with that math.
I have never done common core math till this thread, but having the reasoning explained it makes a little (keyword little) more sense now. I do it that way in my head all the time in the field, but when I write it out, I always do it the old way.
However that meme is dumb. I solved it by adding 7 to both. 568 - 293...add 7 to both...575 - 300 = 275
