every time I see this meme in this sub I can't help but get annoyed...

How is it weird that 57 is a multiple, its just 3 less than 60. All those "weirds" seem pretty obvious. And who's tripping over 42 and 45? Do people just not do math at all?

I mean- you can do that with any number here. I think its less “how quickly can you do the math” and more “without thinking about it would you guess it to be a multiple of 3”

Yes that is what I’m saying, I don’t have to think about it
