now what if my pronouns are she/they/he? you can’t simplify complex fractions so easily 😎

personally I’m dumb as bricks where math is concerned, which means I get the benefit of finding jokes like this totally novel and thus pretty funny

she/they/he = she * (he/they) = she * 1/ty = she/ty

no because you can’t just simplify complex fractions like that, and without parentheses there’s no way to know whether the complex fraction is in the numerator or the denominator. for the sake of ease, assuming the numerator holds the complex fraction, it would have to be split into (she/they)*(he/1) and from there simplified into (s/ty)*(he) = (s*he)/ty = she/ty

ah perfect and you’ve solved the complex fraction in the denominator case! so it’s the same either way

the derivative is the instantaneous rate of change of a function. do you understand limits?
