Sorry if the math problem up there was too difficult,
The answer was 2, if you didn't know.
And, about math,
I know a lot of people hate math,
But its easy, honestly,
Just loads of work, sometimes.
Also, numbers are fairly important,
If you think about it.
Now, you might be asking,
"What are you going to do, teach us a math lesson?"
No, that's not it, reader.
What I'm doing here,
Is making you ask yourself,
What would happen, if numbers never got to see the light?
Numbers, and math are very important.
In different ways.
Of course, calculus, trigonometry, advanced algebra and advanced geometry may not seem very important.
And, those, are not.
Unless your job makes you do stuff like that.
Although, math in general, is fairly important.
Multiplication.
Addition.
Subtraction.
Division.
All important, basic, things.
Okay, are we on the same page now?
Yes?
Good.
No?
Read it again, okay?
So, how would life be, if numbers never existed?
I did a bit of research, for school purposes, and thought about this.
Quick history lesson, go!
In something b.c, some huge Indian nerds from the Mauryan and Gupta  empires thought, "Look, this dot means nothing." That was zero. Then, they made the 1 and 9 that we still use today.
The end!!!!
So, basically, if that never happened,
We wouldn't ever have numbers.
Of course, after that, they got stolen.
From those one pulga Arabic guys.
Then got taken to Europe.
They used it for a while.
Then, dropped it, and used Roman numerals.
The lesson in This?
Never let people steal your stuff, because they're gonna end up dropping it and using some random fancy numbers.
Anyways, the creation of these numbers was a very important break in science.
Without that, someone else would probably make them later on, right? But what if, they didnt?
If they were never created, how would we count things?
You want 5 bagels for 2 dollars?
Without numbers, that wouldn't happen, John!
We would have to do something else or figure numbers, and math in general out.
Have an idea, or your own opinion about this?
Feel free to comment.
