#

be more specific on what chat it is and screenshot it if you can

wicked current
#

I think I neeed to repost this

#

you can see it in the message

orchid radish
wicked current
#

it simply says that it is best to think of fractions with this formula

#

$a\times^{-1}b$

woeful narwhalBOT
#

rockhoven

orchid radish
#

its not going to help if you dont say more about this

#

because $\times^{-1}$ is completely meaningless

woeful narwhalBOT
orchid radish
#

are you doing $a\div b=a\times b^{-1}$ instead?

woeful narwhalBOT
wicked current
#

I can't screenshot from my setup

#

It says that this is the best way to think of fractions

#

$a\times^{-1}b$

#

why are you avoiding the question of what chat youre getting it from?

orchid radish
#

your chat has the context, not the symbol

#

you need to post the chat here so that I can read it and tell you what they mean

nova glacier
#

@wicked current again, where is this text from

#

answer mtt's question

woeful narwhalBOT
wicked current
#

I told you all I know

#

I can not supply a screenshot

#

if you don't know then it is no mystery that I don't know

#

that help a lot

orchid radish
#

@wicked current your best bet is to ask this elusive Chat of yours on what x^-1 even means

#

until then, no one except you can answer this question

wicked current
#

I didn't get an answer

#

wait

#

i can send you a lonk to the conversation

#

maybe but I'm not sure

#

OK

orchid radish
#

quick question

#

why did you not want to post the chat?

wicked current
#

you have it now

orchid radish
#

no no

wicked current
#

good lucky

orchid radish
#

it took me asking 5 times for you to reluctantly give it

#

you tell me

#

why you didnt give it sooner

wicked current
#

I'm busy

orchid radish
#

so am I

wicked current
#

you never asked for it

orchid radish
#

I did, twice

wicked current
#

you asked for a screenshot

#

ok ok

orchid radish
#

I asked for the screenshot 3 times

#

for the link 2 times

#

= 5 times total

#

why didnt you give it?

wicked current
#

forget there are other math palces to tak about this

orchid radish
#

youre at fault here

wicked current
#

ok im at fault

orchid radish
#

youre not taking the blame still

wicked current
#

talk math now

#

for what?

#

look i came here for math

orchid radish
#

youre going to sit here and realize what youve done wrong

wicked current
#

talk math or get out of the wy

orchid radish
#

before math theres communication

#

this is an example of a symbol that is not communicated properly

#

having that precision down is part of what makes math solid

wicked current
#

that is what i thought too

orchid radish
#

and Im not detecting a hint of sorry from you for dragging this on

#

"Im busy" is not a good excuse when Im forced to ask the same question 5 times

#

until Im getting that sorry from you, I know youre going to repeat the same fundamental problem again

wicked current
#

are you going to tlk about math or trol me?

#

yer tolling

#

I sent you a friend request

orchid radish
#

what does that even mean

wicked current
#

i am blocking you

#

you can DM me

orchid radish
#

why are you talking like that

#

you make this sound like a drug deal

wicked current
#

Hello is there anyone out there who can talk about math?

orchid radish
#

maybe you need to step back and rethink what youve done

nova glacier
#

@wicked current the entire point of the server is to teach math or talk abt it

#

however if you will continuously be unhelpful or unserviceable, there's not much we can do. although we are most definitely glad that you have decided to share the link, it would've been MUCH more helpful if you did it 45 minutes ago

#

thirdly, i request that you realize your mistake--as mtt mentioned--and at least attempt to be civil to him. like he said--we're busy too; we're volunteering our time to help helpees such as yourself who sometimes do not wish to be of assistance nor be respectful

orchid radish
#

Id elaborate more on it but rockhoven is nothing but rock solid to new ideas
if only you can change that by taking a closer look at what youve said so far and thinking about how much more time youve wasted on my end

orchid radish
#

oh btw

#

,,6\times^{-1}3=2

woeful narwhalBOT
orchid radish
#

this is a division sign

nova glacier
#

my lord

orchid radish
#

I said this earlier

#

they didnt agree

nova glacier
#

IT IS SO SIMPLE

#

IT SAYS IT BELOW

#

"AN INVERSE MULTIPLICATION"

orchid radish
nova glacier
#

"AN INVERSE FUNCTION TO MULTIPLICATION"

orchid radish
#

I was on this from the very start

nova glacier
#

I KNOW

orchid radish
#

they said no

nova glacier
#

THAT'S WHAT I WAS THINKING BEFORE AS WELL

#

BUT THEY DISAGREED

orchid radish
#

love hearing that

#

this is the definitive mtt experience

#

asked for context for the chat too and its literally below the image

nova glacier
#

@wicked current if you'd actually read the entire conversation, it mentions that it's meant to represent an inverse to multiplication. which is precisely what division is about

#

my LORD

#

@wicked current

orchid radish
#

dont push rockhoven, theyre going to rain down on you the might of God if you ping them too many times

#

so it looks like rockhoven got confused between this inverse-multiplication symbol and what theyre learning for inverse proportions

nova glacier
#

i don't believe in god

#

they are powerless

orchid radish
#

of course God would be powerless to them thats why God's under them

nova glacier
#

should we just close this?
can you do that in forum?

solar burrowBOT
#
Solved

Post marked as solved by @nova glacier.

Use .unsolved if this was a mistake.

nova glacier
#

huh

#

.unsolved

solar burrowBOT
#
Unsolved

Post marked as unsolved by @nova glacier.

Use .solved to mark as solved.

orchid radish
#

yea with the helper role you can do .close or .solved, but no one usually pays attention to those because you can talk afterwards

nova glacier
#

no i know

#

i was just wondering whether u can in forums

orchid radish
#

thats what I said

nova glacier
#

*shrugs*

orchid radish
nova glacier
#

huh

wicked current
#

that's what i thought

#

its an inverse proportional

#

that is exactly what I do when working with inverse proportionals

#

I invert the operation from multiplication to division or from divsion to multiplication

#

If people would read the title it says what the the formula intends

#

INVERT THE OPERATION or any other method equal to that which effects an inverse proportion

#

there are different ways to do this

#

and there is no reason to argue about it either

#

because whatever languages of math we are speaking

#

we are always discussing one and the same topic

#

proportion

#

that's it

#

doesnt matter if its "Maxwell's equations" "Fourier series' or any kind of highfallutin math with infinity symbols or anything else

#

its all the same thing

#

proportion

#

good day gentlemen
