O.O
Method aqquired.

Today, I learned something from a rage comic. O.O indeed

So of course I have to go into a full explanation of this.

Basically this takes a number n and claims that (at least for some restricted n) that

n^2 = 100(n-25)+(50-n)^2

simplified:

100(n-25)+(50-n)^2=100n-2500+2500-100n+n^2=n^2

I was not expecting that to work out so well. So (if I’m not mistaken) this actually works for any real number.

Of course, you have to view it as a sum and not just the digits; ie if you use 96 you get:

96-25=71; 50-96=-46; (-46*-46)=2116 (as seen in the comic)

but obviously 96^2 ≠ 712116 

however, 96^2 = 9216 = 7100+2116 = 100(71)+2116

Yay math.
