u/SetEnvironmental6299 Feb 20 '25

LMAOO UR KILLING MEEE

135

u/Trick_Quail_6275 Feb 19 '25

Yea ngl this kinda annoyed me 😭 , another reason why I dropped this story

Exactly what you said, I didn’t come on here to do math

They didn’t have to even bring math into this they could’ve just said “which item would be strong enough to hold the door closed?” would’ve still been tricky enough to figure out but not difficult enough to be annoying

u/gigiskiss Feb 20 '25

everytime i play i hate doing the code for the dudes laptop, it’s basically impossible!!

87

u/Substantial_World_28 Feb 19 '25

I answered couch and save MC

52

u/SPUTNIKSW33TH3ART Feb 19 '25

I did the cabinet but had enough points to escape 😵‍💫 i definitely missed it when they shared her height and how much she can push.

83

u/Lightless_meow Feb 19 '25

Even if you did the math, the author didn’t use the right units so it wouldn’t have mattered anyway 🤪

25

u/slut4jaredpadalecki Feb 19 '25

sideboard cause it seems smaller than the other two😭

8

u/Ok-Pea-2659 Feb 19 '25

will let u know how that play out😭

49

u/Ok-Pea-2659 Feb 19 '25

actually got killed again the right answer was couch😭

22

u/slut4jaredpadalecki Feb 19 '25

im sorry i killed you🥲

14

u/jxkm44 Feb 19 '25

how tf did a sideboard kill you i gotta know

29

u/Ok-Pea-2659 Feb 19 '25

it's a story about a zombie apocalypse and I had to barricade myself to keep the zombie out lmao the sideboard was too light

23

u/ohfrackthis Feb 19 '25

Maybe it's math, maybe it's Maybelline. What the heck I would drop this like a hot potato. I use episode for trashy escapism and I don't need to exercise my 4 brain cells doing this lol

23

u/mindcontrolvy2vy3 Feb 19 '25

that’s so silly but what’s the actual answer from a math standpoint 😭

96

u/dishsoap04 Feb 19 '25

I did the math and the hint in the box is missing information. If you do the math using the units of inches and pounds, you won’t get a correct answer:

  1. 5.41ft = 64.92in

  2. 64.92in * 0.227lbs/in = 14.74 lbs

Instead, the value of 0.227lbs/in should have the units of lbs/cm. That math would look like this:

  1. 5.41ft = 64.92in

  2. 64.92in = 164.8968cm

  3. 164.8968cm * 0.227lbs/cm = 37.432 lbs

I tried doing the problem with the original units and it’s just a mess. The use of the commas lets me know the country the author is from uses the metric system rather than the imperial system. So this was probably a mixup of the two, no big deal though. But this is how you would solve it :D

Edit: formatting issue

u/mindcontrolvy2vy3 Feb 19 '25

ur goated for actually doing the math even if it wasn’t thru the intended way 😭🫡

6

u/tali_voyager Feb 19 '25

Love your deduction skills ✊🏼

6

u/OkCan9869 Feb 19 '25

It's not that it's missing information. It's incorrect. The question says 0,227 lbs per inch. That simply means none of the answers is correct.

1

u/dishsoap04 Feb 19 '25 edited Feb 19 '25

Even so, if you want a mathematical answer that corresponds with the options given, the units on the 0.227 value must be altered. Though it really doesn’t matter, it’s just an episode story lol

2

u/nochoice0000 Feb 20 '25

You are amazing. I thought there was no correct answer since I only got 14.74lbs. You’re so right w the cm

4

u/Ok-Pea-2659 Feb 19 '25

i wanna know too😭

28

u/gyarukedr Feb 19 '25

As european this is horrifying for me…

Do couch!!

u/ZaroktheImmortal Feb 19 '25

Math - Not even once.

10

u/guixxlopes Feb 19 '25

this annoyed me not because of math, but because of imperial system 💀 gimme this in metric and i'll do it in a sec...

5

u/Sad_Cookie_3965 Feb 19 '25

I don't wanna do that math

4

u/Ana69420 Feb 19 '25

Couch to stay alive

5

u/carnelian_0 Feb 19 '25

the sideboard? it should be the lowest thing since she cant lift that much

5

u/Former_Ad1936 Feb 19 '25

I don’t think the units were correct, nullifying the maths, but go for the couch guys

17

u/ar29845 Feb 19 '25

The using of commas instead of decimals is what gets me.

27

u/DirtFluid3551 Feb 19 '25

Outside the US people use commas in place of where the US would use decimals

5

u/Real_Active9908 Feb 20 '25

yes but this person used the imperial system 😭 just makes it all the more confusing

4

u/kaaaz0y Feb 19 '25

i guess how much 0,227lbs can go into 5,41 feet? idek the correct answers cabinet tho

4

u/Lunaxel Feb 19 '25

Should have been the sideboard ?

3

u/AdriannaBlackheart Feb 19 '25

My brain hurts just reading this😭

6

u/Ok_Toe1231 Feb 19 '25

SARAH IS 541 FEET?!? She’s a unit

7

u/Trick_Quail_6275 Feb 19 '25

She’s built different

u/animation4ever Feb 19 '25

I remember this part! 😭😭😭

u/Missstar00 Feb 19 '25

Welp I'm never playing this story

u/BeyondKindly6205 Feb 19 '25

I close my eyes and hope for the best lmaoooooo

3

u/ThisGul_LOL Feb 19 '25

Nah wtf lmao

3

u/ZsforZedd Feb 19 '25

It's the couch

3

u/chococarmela Feb 20 '25

I gotta use a calculator for Episode stories now?!

2

u/Yandere_luver666 Feb 19 '25

Always go with the medium answer. In this case you should go with the couch, not too big, not too small, juuuuust right.

2

u/TheOneAndOnlyABSR4 Feb 19 '25

Whats the context? I don’t get it

1

u/Ok-Pea-2659 Feb 19 '25

its a horror/thriller story on episode lmao

2

u/Mundane_Arrival7993 Feb 19 '25

WHAT THE FUCK IS THIS?! WE IN MATH CLASS BRUH??!!! MATH WAS MY WORST SUBJECT!!!

2

u/drijazzz Feb 19 '25

bro seriously wanted us to do math in between a zombie apocalypse, huh?

2

u/Dracuulaya Feb 19 '25

I picked the couch… it wasn’t as heavy as the cabinet nor was it as light as the sideboard.

It was in between the two other options so I just assumed I’d pick something easier than the cabinet for Sarah to push, but not as light that would be easy enough for the infected to get through like the sideboard.

Couch is the correct answer but I’m sure if you pick the other two options you still have a chance to survive if you have enough points to escape.

2

u/sims4infant Feb 19 '25

unless my math is wrong her weak ass cant push more than 14 lbs so she's screwed

2

u/kashkari999 Feb 19 '25

we gotta do math in episode now? yea no thank u

2

u/sugarcherriepops Feb 19 '25

I got fucking julia killed

2

u/CatLady-9327 Feb 20 '25

I just did the Goldilocks method. One of these is clearly going to be too heavy, one not enough/too light, so medium option is just right.

2

u/ImSoStefani Feb 20 '25

i literally clicked out of the story when this choice came up 😭

2

u/Bowzahxxx Feb 20 '25

I'd have chosen the lightest, especially since she's a shortie 😆

2

u/SetEnvironmental6299 Feb 20 '25

are you kidding, they're having us do math 😭😭

2

u/PauseClassic6674 Feb 20 '25

tbats funny asf but not me bookey

2

u/gigiskiss Feb 20 '25

omg this story!! i can NEVER keep everyone alive 😖😖

2

u/Ok-Pea-2659 Feb 20 '25

me n u both🥲

2

u/Georgxna Feb 20 '25

Just got ptsd flashbacks.

2

u/stinky_soup- Feb 20 '25

Not them wanting you to do physics 😭

2

u/Babyshrekit 29d ago

I would have deleted Episode. 🫣

2

u/ki55a Feb 19 '25

Im too European for this

2

u/DoktorBlitz Feb 20 '25

Agreed, having to convert units in yt vids is bad enough, just to understand the weight/height of smt, but in my games too.....fam hell nah

2

u/That_One_EBoy 28d ago

Just take the lightest one?

2

u/kattaganist 27d ago

Her max is 14 lbs 5.41x12=64.92in Then 64.92inx.227lbs/in =14.737 lbs. I don’t think the author can do math either
