What help should be provided? You are the one who started this post saying they should be ashamed. That's just rude to begin with.

I said: I think its shamefull of that maths question.

I never slated anyone and btw thats my opinion: I am not rude i created this post to help people thats what its doing, except people like you just wanna slate them.

People have posted in here asking for help!

Read other posts, i am helping someone who saw my post and actually did not understand the quest at all!!

That was my point.

Just bcause you understand it don't mean others do!

I am actually helping people right now: :-)

Kind Regards

Seems like more of an annoyance than help. A helpful post would go something like this...


A. present the math problem.

B. show them how to work through the problem.

C. put a spoiler with the answer in it.

D. Say something like "hope this helps".

e. f....wait what was the next letter? OH I KNOW!.... GG!

Then why on gods green earth did you even waste your time posting such things as:

Complex math questions? Are you kidding me? First of all it is basic P E M D A S (Please Excuse My Dear Aunt Sally / Parenthesis Exponents Multiplication Division Addition Subtraction), otherly known as the Order of Operations. This is 5th-6th grade BASIC math algebra (the same age range this game is advertised to be for... 10+). There is nothing complex about this, and I'm quite sure when I was in school, even the students with learning disabilities were still taught this.

There is nothing shameful about this. At least this quest finally makes you think about what you are doing, rather than other quests where people just spam click through the text just to get to the next part.

If you didn't need to butt your nose in then why do it?

Simply stating from the beginning a correct layout for the post instead of turning this thread into a complete shambles including a jargon of nonsense ( congratulations btw ) would have been a healthy alternative, next time think before you post, it effects everyone y'know, and as you can quite clearly see from a page or 2 back, someone already asked for help, which goes to show, people are struggling / in need of help.

[SirSlayer]

I love you both keep calling my replies "nonsense" but this entire post is nonsense from the beginning. Don't post stupid posts, and you won't get replies that you don't like. Post it the right way from the beginning or don't post it at all. Quite simple really.

[jerremy]

Apple pie.
Yeah that's all I had to say..



But seriously, just stop the nonsense about who's right.

regardless of layout, i got the main point. Only kill those woopies -.-
thanks

ShazamO this post should just be deleted lol. It is a spoiler and discouraging for people to even do the quest. When in fact the quest was quite fun and interesting, and not hard at all.

Yeah lets not help those who need it!!! > , if anything this should be move to the FAQ and guides section with the answer kept intact ( you cant google the 1st math question, the square root you can ) to be quite honest SirSlayer im dissapointed in what your saying, surely someone like you would have the common decency to want to... y'know...whats that word again? OH YEAH: Help people

I don't feel it's my place to take down this post that can potentially help people. If people don't want to think, so be it.

Well spoken I totally agree with this.

[RagingHormones]

It's basic math yes, but people shouldn't look down on those that can't do it, instead, try to help them. I don't think incorporating this into the quest is shameful though. If you think about it, the NPC text in Rose is mainly in English and in written format, so what about those who are dyslexic or have English as a second language or don't speak/read it at all? That seems a bigger issue than a math problem snuggled away in one part of a quest. Is it shameful that they use English as the main language? Math is a more universal language imo.

1. If I remember the problem was [25/5 + 5(1+2)] / 5 Little Woopies. May be a bit mistaken with the first part

so break the numerator down 25/5=5 and 5 (1+2) = 5 (3) = 15

so its (5+15)/5 = 20/5 = 4 Little Woopies

2. The root of 4 squared. Root is finding the number that multiplies with itself to make the given number. eg. the root of 4 is 2 because 2 x 2 =4, root of 25 is 5 because 5x5= 25, etc

Squared is sort of the opposite of root. Just multiply number with itself- eg. 6 squared is 36 because 6x6=36, 7 squared is 49 because 7x7=49

so 4 squared is 4x4 = 16. What is square root of 16? When u just multiplied 4x4 to get 16, 4 and 4 are the same numbers so root of 16 is 4. The two operations cancel each other out so you start out with the same number. So 4 Woopie Chefs

Just want to say I liked this quest. I actually wanted to talk to npc's and read the funny dialogue. I laughed at a lot of it, was good (but short-lived) fun.

If people don't want to think, so be it.

I can vouch that some people loved the maths part. They messed up that part of the quest a few times but said things like "don't tell me the answer!! I'll get it right..."

For the people who didn't love it.... their struggle is also a good laugh

[Didah]

I love math

[Nickib]

i Actually liked the quest.

I did not post this to offend anyone only to help the people that needed help. Shameful was the wrong word i'm sorry for that.
I meant its a shame that type of maths question was included.

I totally agree it was a Brilliant quest. I just see alot of poeple struggling and asking for help and people just walking away and ignoring them. So i posted this xD

Kind Regards

After having done the Quest 6 times now, and having all the answers I need, I have thoroughly enjoyed doing it. Its a great quest don't get me wrong I just struggled with that 1 part ( math section ).

@RagingHormones: Thanks for explaining it...But I still don't get how it works, I don't think I have the right understanding for these types of math questions, I can do the rest tho lol

To sum up:

A great event worth doing, decent event prize, head is hurting from all the driving around.
Isn't this ^ ^ ^ a haiku?

[johniscu]

This quest was great I enjoyed it. It was def different but then again I am the best in the world so the math problem I knew it before I even read it.

[DestinyDeoxys]

Can somebody tell me why sqrt(4) = 4 ???

Edit: Oh, is it because the quest is saying "Squaring the root of 4", so it's like
[sqrt(4)]^2 = 4?
