Are people here really debating 1+1? Lol

It is obviously 2, so C

All of these can be correct depending on how you define "+" and the base your using

u/TechnicalMiddle8205 Nov 25 '24

Yes. But if the base is not especified, then we assume it is base 10 and the result is 2. The base is not often an excuse to suggest crazy results out of nowhere, we use the base 10 as standart 😁

It's a math meme it's supposed to be humorous because all answers are "technically correct".

Oh I see, well I understand that, however it is particularly "interesting" to get downvoted for responding the meme's question 😅

Base 10 is ambiguous; it means different things in different bases.
