Bad Math Jokes

[Ivan Seeking]

I was a pretty good student, But I never understood why some of my math grades had both a real and an imaginary part.

 

[jedishrfu]

It may be because you imagined yourself to be the one negative square rooting for more complexity in your grades.

I was trying to make a joke about commuting math grades, but I was not Abel.

Turns out the average student in the US has very advanced math skills. They learn Stochastic Math.

This reminds me of the time in a Physics Lab when calculators were first being used mid-70s. We saw a student measuring some circuit and using the calculator to compute the voltage. We knew it to be 1.5V but the student got 1,500V so much for calculator math and user error. When asked how he got the answer, he said that what the calculator said.

What's purple and commutes? An Abelian grape.
What lives at the bottom of the sea and commutes? An Abelian grouper.
What makes up a circus and commutes? An Abelian troupe.
What's in the army and commutes? An Abelian troop.
What looks like a tree and commutes? An Abelian Groot.

Any more for any more?

The elementary school I went to had like 20 ft high ceilings, they planned ahead.

People have been getting taller over the decades.

People have been getting taller over the decades.

Not really. Rulers just keep getting shorter. It's a mystery.

 

[Hornbein]

Not really. Rulers just keep getting shorter. It's a mystery.

Relativistic contraction can explain everything.

Rulers moving fast is a rare occurrence.
Wait, that's not a math joke anymore.

 

[Eclair_de_XII]

Rulers moving fast is a rare occurrence.

Can you not simply place it in a car or inside an airplane? Could you not do this for virtually any inanimate object whose mass will not slow down either of these modes of transportation?

Lmao this is so true!

 

[fresh_42]

Lmao this is so true!

No, it is not. The mathematical answer would have been
$$
\mathbb{Q}(\pi)\cong \mathbb{Q}(x)
$$

I would just run into the Math lounge and shout: " They're giving away free groups!"

$r$

They often tell you that be a pirate's favourite letter, but the truth is, their first love, it be the $c$.

<My reaction:>

$\mathrm{rate \ of \ change \ of \ } \left\{ \frac{1}{3} r^3 \right\}$

Spoiler

$r \ dr \ r$
