How to work out 20?

Are you struggling with the simple task of working out the number 20? Fear not, my friend. I’m here to guide you through this mind-boggling process in a hilarious and informative way.

The Basics

Before we dive into the mysterious world of calculating the number 20, let’s brush up on some basic math concepts that will come in handy later on.

Addition (It’s Easy!)

Remember when we first learned about addition back in elementary school? If not, don’t worry; it wasn’t that complicated. Add two numbers together – what do you get? Simple as pie.

Subtraction (Back From Nostalgia Lane)

And then there was subtraction. Oh, how easy it was to subtract apples from a basket back then! But have no fear – subtraction is still as straightforward today as it was in primary school.

Multiplication (It’s Time for Sshh-Multiplication)

Multiplication might seem intimidating at first glance because well…math can be scary sometimes. But believe me – multiplying two numbers is pretty darn easy too!

Division (Divided We Fall)

Division may sound like some sort of complicated military strategy but guess what? It’s just arithmetic! No panic attack necessary

Let’s crack our knuckles and begin!

Now that we’ve revisited these fundamental mathematical operations, let’s tackle twenty head-on (or digit-on) using one or more of them.

Option #1: Two Multiples Of Ten Added Up

(Have You Ever Heard Of This??)

Perhaps one of the simplest ways to reach twenty is by adding two multiples of ten together — genius right?!

For example:

10 + 10 = 20

Woah I feel smarter already, don’t you?

But why stop there? We could still use other mathematical operations to derive twenty too!

Option #2: Subtracting

Let’s say you were counting up from zero on your fingers, and when you hit ten, some foolish event happened, and you had to start again. Don’t worry – we’ve all been there!

But wait…

What if we took the number 30 (the sum of 10 + 10 + 10)and subtracted out one set of ten?

30 – 10 = 20

Magic!

Option #3: Multiplying

This method may be less obvious, but it’s just as effective or even fun.

The lucky numbers that can accomplish this multiplication trick without including any fruits involved in two different baskets are:

```
4 x (2+1) = 12

then…

12 x (1+1) = 24

And like before….You guessed it right!

“`
Then just subtract:

   _24 - 4 = 20_

Easy! Maybe it seems like a headscratcher at first glance…but math is only complicated when people make it that way.

Option #4: Division ?

Ok now things get more interesting…. How do we achieve twenty through division? Our brains will need superpowers for this one so stay with me here.

  • Twenty divided by two:

    20 /2

           => ten
    
  • Ten multiplied by two:

    `10 2:`
    
            =>twenty
    

There you go! Interesting isn’t It?

You’re ready for life beyond simple math !! Yayyy !

Well done my friend; congratulations on reaching the end of this exciting journey where I led you into discovering new ways to work out the value ’20’. The tricks aren’t earth-shattering or groundbreaking, but they are simple and fun. Try them out the next time you need to calculate twenty (which is likely going to happen pretty soon).

Remember: math doesn’t always have to be complicated; sometimes it’s just about using your brainpower in different ways.

Now go forth, be confident, and calculate like there is no tomorrow!
