whats 1+1?

Question

is it 3?

1 man + women = 1 baby

overall 3 right?

Answer 1

"1" is an absolute mathematical concept. Addition, multiplication, and the like are also mathematical concepts, with only four non-absolute conepts: infinaty, negative infinity, division by zero, and square root of negative one.

"man", "woman," "baby," "twins," etc. are complex systems, governed by non-mathematical principals

Answer 3

1 + 1 = 2 points to the answerer

Answer 4

You can so add apples and peaches, cause why would I be able to put both types of fruit in a bowl otherwise!?

1+1 IS 1+1 which is also two. 1+1=2 ; 2-1=1

And if you're going for the baby thing it'd be more accurate to say;
(1m + 1w) - (1m + 1w) = 1b
Which means that one baby equals one baby since the first equation EQUALS one baby. You simply substitute in a baby for the first part, and it equals one baby.

Thus:

(1m +1w) - (1m +1w) = 1b
1b = 1b

As in one man plus one woman gets together, then subtracts or goes apart. But TECHNICALLY it's not the man plus the woman that makes the baby, it's the egg and the sperm. The man and the woman only provide the MEANS of the addition.

So THERE! 1+1 ≠ 3!

Answer 7

1+1= 144 going by that principle........... youd have to times the maximum number of babies a woman could become pregnant (B) With by the number of pregnancys a woman could concieve in her life time while she was fertile (P) or
1+1=(B+P)

if you wanted a rough estimate i guess you could use 3 for B as with fertility drugs and good prenatal care there would be a good chance of survival for all the babies and you could use Now lets also say that this woman lives to be 90 using no-gap between pregnancys this would allow her to have 120 pregnancys if she started from birth and went to death (9 months(pregnancy) has a common denominator with 12 months(a year) at 36 months so we can use this to figure that she can have 4 pregnancys(36/9) evey 3 years(36/12) 3years x 30 = 90 years of life so 9months x30 =120 pregnancys in that life) however since she is not fertile for all of her life let say shes only fertile for 36 years divide that by 3 to get how many three year spans there are this leaves 12 since we already established that she can have 4 pregancys every 3 years times 4 by 12 and you get 48 pregnancys during the time while shes fertile so now you need to times 3(B) which would be the number of babies she could carry at any one time by 48(P) which would be the number of pregnancys she could have

or 1+1= (3 x 48)

or 1+1= 144

Not to bad for a guy who faile high school math twice huhn? =)

Answer 8

1 + 1 +1 +1 +1 +1 +1 +1 +1 +1........................................WOW it goes on forever! I thought you were asking about all the individuals living on this planet, how many varieties of characteristics if individuals of different ethnic groups have a child, how many ways there is to find happiness in a day, how many grains of sand in the whole world, how many stars there are in the sky - when I see 1+1 - it's more like 1+1+1+1+1+1+1+_1...............I believe I see it as inclusive rather definite. Thanks for that question dude - that's groovy man!

Answer 10

Your logic is wrong. You cannot add apples and peaches. Thus, you cannot add man and women. 1 man + 1 woman = a couple.
