Welcome to the school of mathematics with Davey Coombs. Davey "Hi Class. Let's start some simple math, shall we? First, who can tell me what 4+4 is?"Student "Is it 8?"Davey "There are two correct answers. 8 and 16." Student "Ok?"Davey "Can anyone tell me what 100 + 150 is?"Student "250?"Davey "That's close, it's 250 and 450."Student "I don't understand this math? 100 + 150 is 250, how do you get two answers, one being almost double?"Davey "This is called fair mathematics. It's not fair to just use the number 250 to answer the problem. It's unfair to other people with the wrong answer. To be fair we need to give those people a higher number so it's easier for them to guess."Student "I have no idea what you're talking about?"Davey "Listen, it's simple. Let's say I got a pepperoni pizza. I gave two kids each one slice of pepperoni. One slice had 3 pieces of pepperoni on it and one slice had 6 pieces. I should probably give the kid with 6 pieces of pepperoni and extra slice of pizza just to be fair."Student "You just blew my mind. Litterally."Davey "Well, in a fair and balanced world we give some people double what we give others. Its only fair."Student "How is that fair? That's actually completely unfair and unethical. You are favoring one set of people over another."Davey "Hold on, I don't know how to answer this. Let me call my bosses in Japan and see what I should say."
