Fine, I’ll do the math:
60 seconds in a minute (10 × 6)
60 minutes in an hour (9 × 5 × 4 / 3)
24 hours in a day (8 × 3)
7 days in a week (7)
6 weeks (3 × 2)
The bold 3’s cancel out and become × 1, and then it’s easy to see each integer from 1 to 10 appears exactly once when it’s all multiplied together.
It took me way too long to understand the joke, I may be fucking dumb
I still don’t get it, so… you could be worse.
10!means ten factorial. So 10 * 9 * 8 * 7 * 6 * 5 * 4 * 3 * 2 * 1.It’s a common math joke.
Omg brotha stay strong 💀
It’s not typeset correctly or it would have been obvious and ruined the joke.
Okay, but did he pronounce it as “Ten factorial”‽‽‽‽‽
Nah, he wrote it
It’s like “there are 10 kinds of people in the world: those that can read binary, and those that can’t.”
It doesn’t work if you say it aloud.
Okay, I tried the joke out. I said “it” out loud to my spouse and they didn’t laugh.
This is neat, never thought about this
seconds in an hour = 3600 = 10 * 9 * 8 * 5
24 hours in a day = 6 * 4
7 days in a week = 7
6 weeks = 6 = 3 * 2 * 1
Aw, you beat me to it! But I formatted it better. So who wins? :P
hmm, seems my line breaks were removed…
