.25 and .75 are quotients of 1 and not independently new numbers.

1/4 == .25

Aw shit man gotta get those new 3050s installed or imma be running the world on performance mode

Ah the nuance of a brain developed by the first page of google

Stupid ass

This is a friendly reminder to read our rules.

Remember, /r/Showerthoughts is for showerthoughts, not "thoughts had in the shower!"

I'll be there for yoooooou

When the rain starts to pour

And that, my good friend, is why we will be contemplating life for the next couple of hours staring at a Reddit page and generally experiencing the symptoms of brain damage

I actively hear words usually in my own voice but I'm capable of mimicking other people too.

And counter point, being able to think stuff in my head prevents me from hurting a lot of people's feelings with what id like to actually say lol.

Only if, when they say from 1 to infinity they mean integers. There are countably infinite integers, where there are uncountably infinite real numbers.

My logic basically boils down to with high inflation it's harder to have a sense of what the price actually is as its changes more frequently and in various amounts.

>I would argue that the Price Is Right is the same level of difficulty or maybe even easier now with inflation as people may finally guess prices high enough to be close.

Also means its easier to go over as well if your generally closing to the number.

>After they got cleaned out by a couple that figured out where the prices came from and got everything.

Always thought it was MSRP?

Pets don't know a lot of things though. Like how we go work a job to make sure they're fed

So 1/4, or 0.25, is not different from 3/4, or 0.75? Or are you saying that 0.25 and 0.75 are not numbers at all?

To you. That’s arbitrary. Again. This shower thought isn’t a shower thought but an incredibly established mathematical concept.

If you want to be a smug ass and think you have nailed it go on. But according to all mathematicians on earth you are wrong and this shower thought is right.

If you want to disagree you might as well be a flat earther.

Again feel free to completely disregard me and look it up.

Define number

.5 represents the PIECE.

I nailed this in every comment.

We're upping your tax rate to .99, don't worry, it's basically the same thing.

No! There is infinitely less of them. (Also, some people in the comments are mixing numbers and integers)

come back in 7 years when it'll be next decade again after you missed it 3 years ago.

Definition:

fraction, In arithmetic, a number expressed as a quotient, in which a numerator is divided by a denominator.

The original number being expressed as a quotient. Fractions are quotients of the original number but not new numbers in themselves.

Why not the sun

A pie is 1 pie. A half a pie is a either .5 a pie or 1 half pie. It’s arbitrary. The only difference is representation. You nailed it at the beginning. Math is a construct. I’m only smart enough to understand this not explain it well perhaps since I didn’t look up a more educated way to reply.

He probably means life support or something, they wouldn't survive without it

The prices on the Price Is Right have always been completely different than what you find at your local store. They pick specific odd sizes and items to make it difficult.

After they got cleaned out by a couple that figured out where the prices came from and got everything.

​

I would argue that the Price Is Right is the same level of difficulty or maybe even easier now with inflation as people may finally guess prices high enough to be close.

EDIT:

I haven't gone down any Price Is Right rabbit holes in my life. Not once, not ever. ;)
