How good is the math education in your country?

It's pretty terrible in the early ages here. Gets better in High School
>>
It's ok, so I can tell you that picrel is correct but I'm dumb. I have problems with subtracting. It takes while for me and I still do not trust myself.
>>
>>57768364
That image is completely correct though. I don't see the problem.
>>
I agree it's correct.

40 - 32 is 8, then divide by 2 to get 4

>>57768364
that image is correct

40-32/2 > 40-16 = 24 or 4!

>It's ok

Well it's obviously shit then.

In terms of achievements, like international math competitions and so on its barely OK here, but in terms of mass education it's absolutely shit, like everywhere else. People here are fucking retarded, at least in terms of logical thinking. I've heard a psychiatrist say that children start learning some important mathematical concepts way too late, and their brain is already too developed at that point to get into the right way of "thinking" for maths.
>>
32/2 = 16
40-16 = 24
4! = 4.3.2.1
4.3.2.1 = 24

24=24


correct.
>>
>>57769115
good joke
>>
>>57768364

its 24

I know Jesus Christ is my savior, but the answer is not 4!

>>
>>57769365
>Shit
It's not that good, it's basically nonexistent actually.
>>
its correct
you get 40-16=4!
24=24
because 4!=1*2*3*4 which is 6*4 which is 24
>>
>>57769222

It says that.

I though you Finns had good education

4! = 24
24 = 24

the exclamation mark is a factorial dumbass

that means 4 x 3 x 2 x 1

Mental boot camp for 12 years. I think we're the top country in the world for PISA math.

If you arrive to any answer other than 4 from this equation, you must literally have a steel rebar lodged in your skull and running straight through your brain stem. You were also probably punted head-first into rock at birth and probably also had your head rolled over by a bulldozer.

>>57770461
you are wrong.

suppose 4! = 4 x 3 x 2 x 1. dividing both sides by 4, we get ! = 3 x 2 x 1, or ! = 6. the symbol (!) is not even a number, you idiot.

Why don't people use brackets for these kinds of things? It's much easier than learning some arbitrary order of operations.

I don't remember any of it, so what was the point? Fuck gr education and the industry built around it desu

I think education in America is very laissez faire. Up to you if you wanna learn or not, at least in public school. Parents are another variable. Classes are available if you excel, especially in middle and high school. Maybe this is too general/ vague.

Math schools teach math better? What are you trying to say? Our schools are super good in general or they at least were in 90s.

I have a better problem for you, /int/.

Prove that there are infinitely many prime numbers.
Don't use google ofc.
I am pretty sure every non-dumb person is able to prove it.

oh come on
everyone has heard of that proof
>imagine there is one biggest prime number
>get the product of all primes up to that max one
>add 1
clearly you can't divide that number by any of the primes you used to build it
so it's either prime (so, contradiction) or it has a prime factor that isn't one of the factors you used to build it (so again, contradiction)
