Abbott And Costello 13 X 7 is 28

[domainphotography]

Hahahaha "You ever go to school, stupid?!" "Yeah! Came out the same way!" Zing!! 

[Kirstyyy93]

It's a good thing I've seen this after I've left school, or I never would have passed maths.

[Xterminator8411]

I can solve this by subtracting

[InsaneGrunt]

34 people went to school stupid and came out the same way

[Fishmon14]

This is so stupid it's brilliant!

[aussietruckieian]

Love the comment: Didnt you go to school stupid? Yeah and came out the same way!! lol

[AWEDDDD]

WOW Shemp Howard makes an appearance

[J3nJ3nnyJ3nnifer]

why does my M098 professor keep sending this to me??? Your going to havbe some hungry officers!!!

[REJK2008]

Shemp!!

[jothken]

"Ever go to school, stupid? "

"Yeah and I came out the same way"

lololol

[swaggermonk]

My teacher showed us this

[CSXfoamer97]

Call me crazy, but look at the black board in between the 1's and 3's when their adding it up, and doesnt it look like a christmas tree?

[Bastacat]

@CSXfoamer97 yep,it does :D

[CSXfoamer97]

34 PEOPLE FORGOT DYNAMITE!!!!

[300Z31]

Whoa whoa whoa...what the hell is Shemp doing in this skit? lol

[IcedEarthisFAV]

@300Z31 I know for sure that he played in 2 of Bud abbott & Lou Costello's movie. He played in Buck Private and In the Navy.

[300Z31]

@IcedEarthisFAV That's awesome. I just can't believe I never noticed that before.

[itsmegp46]

@300Z31 He was also in their flick, Hold that Ghost!

[xfloria]

13x7. Lets split them up. 3x7 = 21. 7x1 = 7. Thing is whne you multiply, you put a zero. So i would be 21+70 = 91.

[emHatta]

@xfloria if you put a zero when you multiply then 2x2=40 XD

[Antifrost]

I wanna forcefeed these guys algebra books until they crap out geometry.

[monkofslayer]

@Antifrost Geometry has it's own books.

[LG112108]

That guy that's always on the left was one of the three stooges once XD

[Scrapcarslegallycouk]

Great Double act.

[angelon111]

next einstein.

[XxspontexX]

Is it wrong that my math teacher showd me this clip?

[cookiesncream1217ful]

@XxspontexX

lol so did mine:)

[supernataral22]

when I showed this to my teacher I hade to go to the principals office lol :p

[cookiesncream1217ful]

@supernataral22

why.? its not bad lol

[warloxwill]

i want to go back to school just to troll my old teachers with this

[MrDrawingboard1]

When Costello puts the 13 seven times, and makes them spread as it goes down, it looks like a christmas tree.

[tsBobbieJo]

love it



[1987billman]

i love this clip. it makes complete and absolute sense!!!!!

[MrLautnerlove4eva]

lol

[lNasukal]

This is genius!

[TheEyesofSorrow]

LOL! I'm doing this to my math teacher tomorrow xD

[keshaiscool10]

haha interesting method he used

im a gonna show that to my math teacher. ill get an A+ on her next test

[myKyuubischild]

math teachers hate this skit.

[Ohnoezhumenz]

The worst part is that it's not wrong :P He calculates it wrongly, but his answer is correct for the method he uses. Amazingly funny.

[tnykolyn]

lol at 2:42 hes adding 3+3+3+3+3+3+3+1+1+1+1+1+1+1

[GuitarCoversLessons]

@tnykolyn good job you watched the video

[mosyemessy]

try giving 13 officers 7 donuts. then u'll be screwed! :)

[nathbloc]

love this

[DoraDebbyij639]

ehm Hot latin blond girl

[dontwastemoney]

I didn't know Shemp Howard was in this film, learn something new

[WarMachine541]

Im learning :D

[webandit1]

Hilarious

[ProfDrMrWeedgood]

Is the other guy Shemp????

[ThankGodForCountry]

@ProfDrMrWeedgood yes I think so haha

[ThreeCatsScratching]

Oddly enough, this scene was written better than most of today's sitcoms

[ReddNekk13]

@ThreeCatsScratching Just about anything is written better than today's sitcoms.

[sov6rulz]

Is the fat one supposed to be like curly from the three stooges? I notice similar mannerisms.

[ThreeCatsScratching]

@sov6rulz No That's Lou Costello

[sov6rulz]

@ThreeCatsScratching I'm aware its not actually Curly, I just noticed that they have some similar mannerisms so I was wondering if it was some sort of throw-back or coincidence or what.

[zzaarraahhm]

x_X

[ExodusVirOn]

7x3=21

he says 7x1=7 so (21+7=28) when its actually 7x10=70 so 21+70=91

For those who couldn't use the brainnnnnZZZZZZZ

[Opium1958]

Hey! is that shemp howard? wow, what movie is this from?

[E1craZ4life]

@Opium1958 In the Navy.

[Clint945]

All they did was switch the tens and ones.

pretty funny.

[ramonmiguelll]

fuck the math!shemp!!!!!

[sanam486]

so i need a man

[TH3UTUB3PRO]

haha hilarious

[biguy617]

looks like conservative math.

[biguy617]

Look one of the stooges is in this scene. Schemp.

[IISNiPESHOTx]

MIND = BLOWN

[playcard239]

13 donuts per officer? fatasses...

[blaque212]

Its comedy idiots! Its not supposed to be legit math! Why people always gotta knock someone else's work??

[inproductiveninja]

I know he's trolling though of course, I don't blame him having to make 91 muffins (or whatever I forgot:P)

[inproductiveninja]

2:15 he isn't doing 7 times 13 he's doing 7 times 1+3, which is 4, and 7 times 4 is 28

[jarleaarbakke123]

he counted the tenths as ones what a moron

[avatarweaklings]

he did this

13

13

13

13

13

13

13

He Plus all the Three's And He Plus all The One Which Means

1+1+1+1+1+1+1=7 3+3+3+3+3+3+3=21 Which Is Added Together 7+21=28 xD

[Goodatconnect4]

Hahahaha I love how smug he is!

[sumphoneo]

I'm thinking about this phenomenon. now we all should know that that it's really 7 x 4 = 28. But if we look at the 7 x 13 equation and look at the 13, it's 1 + 3 = 4 which would then in turn say 7 x 4 = 28 which therefore means 7 x 13 = 28. amazing, huh? lol

[killerstalker21]

27 people think that they should do subtraction

[cassielewis10]

Which one of there movies is this in?

[nicholbrownshayne]

now I've seen everything o.o

[YungJr1993]

13 x 7 minus 1 = how many people who got 91 for an answer. Idiots ^_^

[CNcyanide18]

There goes all my education, now I can't even understand simple division. Holy shit I'm doomed for all of eternity.

[JM042909]

the mathematical man... is he still alive?

[sumphoneo]

@JM042909 No, he died of a heart attack  in 1959 at the age of 52. His real name was Louis Costello.

[THEORIGINALEXSCAPER]

Sure as Shemp was...

[Dorkgyrl123456]

I get it,its so simple 13+13+13+13+13+13+13=28

:)

[hiemenzk]

@NexonsHitman lol

[DarknessIsTheTruth]

Was that other guy shemp?

[13gothpunk1]

26 people went to a cheap school

[noicon85]

@ anticorncob6. Give me a week, I'll get back to you on that! Lol

[Thebrandonjo]

lol

[Palkia792]

as brilliant as the Autobots version

[NexonsHitman]

Ten minutes with Costello, American Deficit problem solved.

[pegmorris]

and people wonder why i messed up my budget......ne math.. I studied this great math professor for years :)

[PvtBlackburn]

@swimgurl96 agreed

[swimgurl96]

you almost find yourself agreeing with him

[dustymiller65]

OMG! That guy's just not edumacated well, like I and you! >;o)

[pegmorris]

@dustymiller65

it's called new math...uh..I learned to count with an abacus...so this isn't a stretch..I loved Abbot and Costello

[dustymiller65]

@pegmorris An abacus?! Holy smokers! You know, you can do math with an abacus...you just need a lot of practice--it actually works. If you really love Abbot and Costello, have a look at their "Who's on first?" skit. That's got to be my most absolute favourite routine. See you~

[13fossie13]

SHEMP!!!!!!!!

[Alstheman37]

Is that Shemp Howard?

[SalemMillion]

LOL

[HERBWELSHMAN]

press 5 MAO

[Cre8iveStudios]

he would be fucked if he added 7 7 7 7 7 7 7 7 7 7 7 7 7 = 91 cuz then he wouldnt deal with another digit.

[6thcase]

Oh my god, It's Shimp!

[E1craZ4life]

Why they don't do comedy like this anymore, I'll never know.

[MacProClub]

3-6-9-12-15-18-21

Yes, 22-23-24-25-26-27-28

It equals 28!

[rotcehvelasquez]

Look at the left! That's Shemp Howard from the Three Stooges!

[IndianaParkWars]

@rotcehvelasquez i know!

[lilsoccerlover]

"7X4 is 28!"

"hmm must've gone to a cheap school"

[lcucinotta1]

That is the same way the politicians count our budget numbers.

[datdogg90]

math ftw

[TheTerminatorT813]

My brain just frickin exploded.

[tthomaselli2]

What movie was this bit from?

[KingdomHeartsGirl000]

@tthomaselli2 Abbott and Costello

[bradm1975]

Hell I'm convinced:)

[dustli77]

My senior year in HS, I mentioned you could add 13 7 times and get 28. My classmates were dumbfounded. My algebra teacher laughed and said, "She's right! It's an Abbott and Costello skit!" then showed the class on the board.

[doglover2122]

this is how the government does math....



[popobone6617]

Look....it's Shemp Howard!

[CommanderOfTheSun]

Genius.

[spinout3]

classic..love it.

[zhengwei1105]

28/7=13 is totally wrong. cos 8/7=1 den th 21/7=3. instead of combing 1 and 3 as 13..it shld b added as 1+3=4. so 28/7=4. it was den correct for 3x7=21, however th 1x7 supposed to b 70 as 1 is in th tens place. den 3+3+3+3+3+3+3=21 is correctly, however th 7 other 1s is ten place so shld +10+10+10+10+10+10+10 instead of +1+1+..+1

[Rollthebuddah]

@zhengwei1105 Do you...even..understand comedy?

[NBK1122]

I didn't know they this version. I've seen the other one where they're in a classroom.

[TheRobertBelmont]

Lucky bastards get to work with a slapstick comic legend. Shemp Howard, he was great in this skit even if he didn't really say anything.

[grep67]

@TheRobertBelmont Its the other way around, man... A&C were around way before Shemp broke into Hollywood!

[SLAYER0100100]

26 people don't believe that 13 x 7 =28

[E1craZ4life]

@SLAYER0100100 Two more, and we can put them in 7 different places in groups of 13.

[MasterCheif117Halo]

this reminds of the three stooges

[TheRobertBelmont]

@MasterCheif117Halo look who's in the skit real close, that's Shemp Howard.

[gnilride]

@MasterCheif117Halo Well, that's Shemp Howard watching on the left.

[GigglesLovesLife77]

@Hardcoregurrl Did you watch Ma and Pa Kettle do math, that is funny too!

[1MtnBoy]

LMAO, dont carry the zero and this is what happens, funny !!!

[anticorncob6]

Make 13 groups of 7 and count them. THEN tell me it's 28.

[c0mf0rta61ynum6]

@anticorncob6 ((7/7)*7*7)-7-7-7+7-7+7-7+7-7=­28

[jennzy26]

Shemp Howard!

[MrFrontrowkid]

Shemp Howard did many single bits in different films at Universal. He was also in the Bank Dick with W.C. Fields. He later teamed with Billy Gilbert.

[MrFrontrowkid]

I wish I had known how to do this routine 28 divided 7 = 13 back in the second grade. My teacher was always trying to get me to explain my math work at the blackboard. This method always made sense to me.

[pandaflop84]

"7X4=28,!! must have went to a cheep school"

[KWCline91]

@Hardcoregurrl NICEE! How did you convince your teacher?

[Leoofmoon]

the gratist comidans ever

[beyoncetyratina]

I've got to try this out with my friends! Confuse the heck out of them!

[AChotdog94]

LMFAO

[michellesupport89]

Haha!

[kedk200]

is that an example of the "new math"? lol

[copout211]

Wait is that shemp it isn't three stooges

[kedk200]

@copout211 yep

[TheRandomnatrix]

25 people got 91 for an answer. Idiots.

[ekuzl13]

What is Shemp doing here? Abbot and Costello aren't stooges!

[DannyDude01]

(Insert number of dislikes) failed math.

[WWEYankee]

after i watched this i forgot how to do long division

[idk2898]

@Freddyk200 wat

[BronxNYE206St]

Shemp Howard!

[trucking604]

Isn't the third guy there Shemp Howard?

[happyslapper0325]

Maybe this is why I fail at math I need Abbott as my math teacher

[dsspike51]

a perfect example of how the wll street bailout was conducted.

[Thegreatjoker13]

im just gonna do it for the hell of it.... Dont matter what the teacher says... Now if u can get the teacher to go along with it (hopefully the teacher seen abbott n costello) it would be funny just to see the students faces sayin WTF???? lol....

[kax305]

wish he show this to his math teacher

[sealwish]

the part at 2:30 I accidentally did on my maths test and failed D:

but I didnt know I was doing it =/

[StanOfGB]

@sealwish lol stupid

[unknownunknowns]

I wish this vid would have shown the mean faces of the officers when Abbott uses his 'math'.

[Sparclen]

@Hardcoregurrl

Well you didn't mention that in your first post. A lot of the people in here are saying they are going to do this and 'baffle' their teacher. They won't be impressed.

Many commenters seem to believe that this is some sort of amazingly clever 'trick', while it's not at all.

Just look at the recent comment from vivifiable12 for an example. People like this one are all lying.

[vivifiable12]

in math my teacher showed us this. I went home,and bet my sis 15 bucks that 13x7=28. :-)

[wilescoful]

Is that Shemp Howard from the 3 Stooges?

P.S. far left time 0:24

[aurorazamora]

@wilescoful Yes, that would be him alright:)

[Thegreatjoker13]

@wilescoful yes it is

[Sparclen]

@Hardcoregurrl

That's bullshit.

The flaws of this 'logic' is so obvious, any teacher would instantly see where you went wrong.

It's just bad math.

[The4288Knight]

as a math major, i have made this a part of my daily life.

[rebeccamats]

i fooled my mom with this

[Logicalpsycho2323]

they can probably prove the square root of Pi is somehow 87.

[xoxctl1211]

My math teacher showed this to us in class today :p

[conderwittich]

Poor Shemp, not even one word of dialoge...

Great routine anyhow! A&C were the best!

[LOLO915]

You forgot the end when he draws a hook and puts his cap there :(

[TheSandyNub]

MIND. BLOWN.

[MardeonasFail]

I did this to math teacher and get -5 -.-'
