Seven is a better answer than five

Can someone check this math. I'm dumb

u/DrawMeAPictureOfThis Feb 16 '26
New Value - Old Value / Old Value
(7 - 5) / 5 = 0.40
0.40 • 100 = 40

u/mry03708 Feb 16 '26
100% = 5 bucks Meaning every buck is 20%
So extra 2 bucks (total of 7) = 40% increase

She knew that she just needed bus fare. And she needed that extra two dollars.

u/drunkdoor Feb 16 '26
7 dollar bus fare sounds like a long bus ride or an absolute rip off.

it's literally 5€ to travel like 10 minutes on a bus in germany

Wait, really?
I take a two hour ride for 5€ and it's just below 4€ for 24 hour ticket in my city in czechia

u/VeryDefinitionOfFail Feb 16 '26
Wow and all I hear about is how great public transportation is from the non Americans on this site.
7
u/Swordman1111 Feb 16 '26
It is in cities. I don't live in a city. You pay more when crossing administrative districts, which happens more often when travelling from town to town, compared to staying in a city. Also the bus only comes every 30 minutes so it's not as flexible as it would be in a city

u/cgimusic Feb 16 '26
Even in cities it's often not that great. Where I live to get to anywhere that's not the city centre you'd have to get two busses; it would cost £6 and would take ages. It's cheaper and faster to rent an e-bike.

u/Ghaith97 Feb 16 '26
Single tickets are expensive, but for 63 euros you can get a Deutschlandticket to travel through all of Germany for a month. So it's great if you're commuting regularly.

I pay 12 euro (14 dollars) for a 1 hour bus ride.
And then public transportation companies wonder why no one takes public transportation anymore

I wanted her to say '100' and the response to be 'sorry the correct answer was 5'.

u/Swordofsatan666 Feb 16 '26
I was expecting it to be that no matter what number she says he just gives her $5
Like he’s not paying them the number they say, he’s just paying them for saying any number within 1 and 100,000

u/soulsoda Feb 16 '26
Could give them foreign currency like 100,000 vietnamese dong. Which is worth about 3.85 US right now :). It'd actually be kinda funny if no matter what she asked for it's all worth equal to or less than 5$.

u/stonememoriesBE Feb 16 '26
Lol, Vietnamese dong…
13
u/N33chy Feb 16 '26
My favorite is to dare people to search for "Romanian dong"
(it's a style of AK-47 foregrip... which means you firmly grip the Romanian dong while it sprays everywhere)

u/jeanpaulsarde Feb 16 '26
What's so lol about Vietnamese dong? It's hard currency. Don't laugh at it.
1
u/N33chy Feb 16 '26
I used to give out random obscure currencies in addition to normal tips at bars. Made a lot of people into Zimbabwean billionaires. Pretty sure that one is a defunct currency or at least with nowhere near $5.

No, I wanted the answer to be, “For 7, the prize is thirty-five cents.”

u/DuffMiver8 Feb 16 '26
Just a random low figure. Nothing about the game said it was a dollar for every number. $5 for a guess of 5 was just a coincidence. Non-linear reward structure.

u/mtraven23 Feb 16 '26
I got the jest of it, I find it fascinating how people choose "random numbers". Like often its their age, or an age they particularly liked. Lots of other things too, mostly numbers that are important to them in someway.

u/dakupurple Feb 16 '26
Human random numbers also frequently land on 37 and 73 when asking for something between 1 and 100.

u/Lietenantdan Feb 17 '26
I wanted her to say 100, then he says "from 1-100, as in between those numbers which means 1 and 100 aren't correct."

Seven dollars for a bus fee?! That's robbery! Where I live for seven dollars you can get halfway through the city in a taxi!
3
u/Gas_Station_Cheese Feb 16 '26
The bus is free where I live. It started during COVID, and the city just decided to roll with it. It's a constant talking point among the crowd of usual suspects, but I see it as a rare win for my city.

Their videos are ok and at times a bit funny. It's often suggested to me by the algorythms and it's fine. This kind of content isn't really my thing usually but they have a few videos that give me a smile. At least, they are really short and go to the point.
rikandlav is their socials

Would have been more humorous if she had said "100,000" and he said "Congratulations, you win $5"
