[[Okay, I think I made my case.

In all seriousness, I apologize for clogging your dashes with this mathematical argument.

I’m gonna pull out of this fight before it gets too heated, and go back to working on drafts.]]

@heros-bane and I are at war against @askthefwrp

forty-eleven is clearly 4,011, not between 49 and 50.

BUT heros-bane and I are putting our differences aside to declare war!

forty-eleven is CLEARLY not 15

pick your side and choose your fate

[[Look mate,

According to this Calvin and Hobbes strip:

7+3=73

Ergo:

Forty-Eleven = 4+11

4+11=15

QED]]

OK, BUT IT’S 40 NOT 4
SO FOLLOWING THAT LOGIC, I’M RIGHT!

in fact even if it WAS four you’d STILL be wrong! it’d be 411

7+3=73

4+11=411

40+11=4011

[[Seven ain’t seventy either. Clearly, this is some kind of combination of digits, where the order of the sum matters.

7 (tenths place) + 3 (ones place) = 73

4 (tenths place) + 11 (ones place) = Forty-Eleven.

Try again.]]

of COURSE it’s a combination, but there’s no ACTUAL addition!

7+3=73 because 7 3=73

it has nothing to do with the places! Simply putting one number in front of the other!

ADMIT IT TABLE! NO MATTER HOW YOU LOOK AT THIS YOU’RE WRONG!

[[Now hear me out.

To get 4011 out of this, we would need a third number, or digit if you will.

4 (hundreds) + 0 (tens) + 11 (ones) = Four hundred and eleven.

4 (forty because it’s the tens place) + 11 (eleven, unchanged in the ones place) = Forty-Eleven.

Hobbes is really seeing each plus as a way to separate each group. Here’s the hypothetical order to Hobbes addition:

[[Larger intervals]] +…(Hundreds) + (Tens) + (Ones) +….[[Smaller intervals]] = net result.

Therefore, 7+3 is not the same as 3+7.

And 4011 is different from 411, which according to traditional math would be 15.

411 = forty-eleven = 15

Face it, I have a better grasp of Watterson math than you!]]

YOU TAKE THAT BACK! >:U

YOU CLEARLY DO NOT KNOW HOW THIS WORKS

EACH NUMBER IS ITS OWN WITH IT’S PLACES STAYING THE SAME.

YOU CANNOT GET 4 FROM 40 UNLESS IT’S ACTUALLY IN THE TENS PLACE NUMBER WISE.

[[Whoa, whoa, I think I see the problem.

You forget that putting a number in the tens place in Watterson Arithmetic multiplies said integer by ten (further research is needed to see if the same holds true for larger or smaller places) before placing it.

Therefore:

7 + 3 = 73

4 + 11 = 411 (forty-eleven)

40 + 11 = 4011 (four hundred and eleven)

400 + 11 = 40011 (four thousand and eleven)

Make sense?]]
