[mymykatie1]

E = MC Mr Napkins

[littlebabyjay12]

omg it was 2;)

[missbehave310]

I got 2...

[KICKASSLOPEZ]

wait i picked 3 doubled it got 6 added 4 got 10 then divide by 2 got 5 then -2 and got 3 i did not get 2 did i do it wrong or does this not work with odds

[chiefychiefychief]

@KICKASSLOPEZ

your last step should have been "minus your original number" as in 5-3 which definitely = 2!

[nerbz11]

@KICKASSLOPEZ supposed to subtract it by your oringinal numer not 2. So your answer would be 2 not 3

[lifesgoodXD]

Wow it was 2! That's pretty amazing imma do this to friends

[Iightaqua]

You know my number ;) It's 2

[TheEnjoi101]

Ahaha! Flaw!!!!! I picked 9 trololol!!!

[TheTitlacauan]

@TheEnjoi101 you retard... it works with any number between 1-10.

[theCaptinofMorgan]

Mind fuck

[ravi3shekh1]

remember the limit is 1-10

[Moorb0y52]

@ravi3shekh1 it works for every number

[gracellev92]

"Um, can I have YO NUMBAHH?? Can I have it? Can I? Can I??"

[sidluvv]

I love that hair.

[evropullin]

this gue looks like Willy Wonka tho original movie :D

[s4236853]

I mostly hate rap but your lyrics are so clever its just amazing :)

[bigbubbus]

THIS PROVES IT..... the meaning of life... is 2!!!  EUREKA, time to get my Nobel Peace prize!

[SnomanX]

That was AWESOME!



[CertainlyNoEinstein]

This is definitely the park from 500 days of summer...

[doan125]

1x2=2+4=6/2=3 OOH WHAT NOW?

[madmoo1111]

@doan125 you forgot to subtract your original number from the 3 so if your number was 1 its 3-1=2 LULZ

[dogerboi]

@madmoo1111 I was just about to say that.

[doan125]

@madmoo1111 Curses Q_Q

[laughingsorrows]

@doan125 now subtract your original number, take one from 3 and you get...2...sorry guy :/

[TheRootBeerRobot]

I used to use this trick on my friends and they'd be mind fucked

[JHMCLB]

@TheRootBeerRobot Lol you must have some dumb friends XD

[Cubixsquared]

When he took off his hat I was slightly surprised by his hair. I was not expecting it!

[Franchiseme62OhK]

omg

[OMGxKATS96]

504-906-5699

[Dudecar77]

it is 2

[snookiliciousable]

holy eek...that was creepy i got 2 ahhh but his voice calmed me down that was awesome im to use this on this guy Daniel in my class so much fun i'll sing it too. ThanksMCMr.Napkins

[pooper9er]

i got 3.5 lol

[Lildrummer02]

ALBERT E.!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

[ephyusikay]

Nice video, and the concept's hilarious, but the people commenting that they can't understand how it works?

This pretty much comes out to:

((2x+4)/2)-x = 2.

Divide the 2x+4 by two, and you get:

(x+2)-x

Subtract the x from x+2 and you get:

2

C'mon, people, don't you remember highschool algebra?

[rammsteinrulz16]

@ephyusikay dammit dude, those were memories i was trying to suppress! DX

[SuperAzproductions]

@ephyusikay some guys are just idiots I guess :P

[drag0nwatcher]

@ephyusikay i could get that answer and I'm only in 7th grade :D

[AndILoveYou24]

@ephyusikay It's definately not highschool algebra. I was doing this trick in 3rd grade.

[00BobbleHead]

HOW THE FUCK DOES THIS WORK?! I wanna learn the logic behind this..And that was hella hot ;)

[corypot170]

Wow. That...was hott.

[cassierenae]

Haha, well that was unexpected.

[MotherRuss1a]

Holy shit this guy is smoooooth

[obito94]

well, it's quite simple really. You double a number, add 4 to it and divide by 2. When you do that, you have your number +2 because of adding 4 to the double. Then subtract by the number you started with and you will always end up with 2. Solution set (-∞, ∞)

[Rawrrrrrzislove]

Shit.

[yankthis009]

Willy Wonka?????????? :O

[ofir866]

lol, funny stuff

the guitar is awesome too

[Slegger0404]

Your hair = Win

[Jennifashow]

I love you. Can we get married, now?

[NaniDuh]

.....I love your hair <3



[amyrocks10]

holy crap it works!!:D

[XDpeanutbutterjelly]

I did the steps and it was 2! GET OUT OF MY MIND :D

[EffectDeadly]

i did follow the steps coz i was curious and for a fact my number was 1.4999 (pro math) so no it wasnt 2

[GTGrabberblue]

@EffectDeadly 1.4999 will get you 2 as the answer regardless. the math equation he is having you do is (2x + 4)/2 - x. no matter what number you choose it will be cancelled out in the final step, leaving you with half the number he told you to add.

i suggest you work on your "pro math" as that is basic algebra

[EffectDeadly]

@GTGrabberblue seriously?i posted that 3 days ago..

[crapinoun]

@GTGrabberblue Life is not about being right, its about being happy. Both you and EffectDeadly, and almost all of humanity need to realize this.. Including me.

[AndILoveYou24]

@EffectDeadly Why would yo put a decimal? Wow.

[EffectDeadly]

@AndILoveYou24 why would you answer to something posted 6 days ago?Idiot.

[PorkyPower100]

huh!? the answer is -2 :) lol but this is so awesome i'll forgive him :P

[nofatchxplzthx]

hmm that was hawk-ward

[blahcomando]

867-5309.

[aznguy11111]

[gatisimo77]

I liked you better in Rage Against the Machine

[hoecchang]

is that the same place as the one in 500 days of summer?

[PurpleMathematican02]

@hoecchang I was thinking exactly the same.



[paintergirl7]

i love you. youre voice is smooth and mathfilled lol

[Kipicus]

This is hot.

[humblebeepc]

Why you got to be so damn fly?

[hellonearth069]

AHHHH! HE'S IN MY BRAIN!!!!!

[BurntheJacket]

I know this trick. I can show you.

Here

Pick another number

Double it

Add 10

Divide it

Then subtract your number

The answer will be 5

[LilFaisal1]

I got 2. That must mean, uh.. E=MC SQUARED!

[1531orlando]

thumbs up and ill give u my number

[MrRicardoChango]

If x is your number, x can be ANY number... even complex xD

You'll ALWAYS "x + 2 - x" in the end

I would try with x = pi - i*e lol

[100CookiesAREawesome]

@MrRicardoChango we're not the dumb ._. (well maybe some are)

[TheCardTrooper]

i got 9001....something must of gone terribly awesome...

[DahDetroxDurrr]

It works with legit ANY number between 1-10, even decimals work.

[Alishondra]

wtf.. i got 2 xD

[fannykeats]

MC Mr. Napkins you are sooo good.

[mexican09091]

It was -2 but still 2....

[KillinNatziBusiness]

*Hums casually while adding this song to Sexy Times playlist*

[sfassih]

x is 'your number...'

2x+4/2 -x

=x+2-x

=2

[ingsbroso]

2 :D

!!!!!!!!

[callumrocksyoursocks]

So...not -3

[AndyCrazyCool]

i got 2!!

[c1recha0s]

ohhh well i got 1.6.... i even wrote it down -_- fail

[pepsilogo]

I got 0 :S

[RuddyRambo]

Sorry you must of got the wrong number :/ this is number 4 :/

[IceColdGlitchKiller]

I'm a straight male and even I can tell this was hot.

[collegeohmeeky]

Logic or not....he got my number through a song while looking hot. My goodness, I needed you for a math tutor :)

[stup1db1tch]

The result is always 2 since

(n * 2 + 4) / 2 - n = (n + 2) - n = 2

n does not even need to be in-between 1 and 10.

And as TheReasonWhyGuy pointed out, if you want the result to be m, just let them add 2m in the second step.

Have fun!

[Pikachu8850]

42

OMFG

he has a lotta hair!!



[gingerofwar97]

No wonder he played a good Albert Einstein in Epic Rap Battles of History. He's a fucking genius!

[yupitsjessbbyx3]

This was oddly very hot.

[Mustdang]

This is soooo smooth.

[craigsamuelrobinson]

pick a number between 1 and 10

multiply by 9

add the digits of the number together

minus 6

=3

[MalakaindTaylor69]

Who else here liked this before epic rap battles... Cause I didn't!

[TheReasonWhyGuy]

the reason it's 2 is simple... the 4 is inserted between the multiplication and division.

So if you want their number to be 5, you'd have them add 10.

1-10

x2

+10

/2

-#

=5

Getting rid of the +4 will show you how pointless all the steps are :)

[TheKelsmommy]

...I think I just had a mathgasm. That's hot ^_^

[Zankiser]

I did this rap to a girl I know, and she asked me to the school dance. I was like "WTF", but she said "I gave you my number, didn't I?"

[PuPaDukie]

this song makes me want to bang a sexy mathteacher...

[thesmexiiman1h3k]

math has never been so sexy!!!

[skinchen]

O.o....... *gets out cellphone and gives number*

[jml21000]

it all hinges on the fact that you are multiplying by 2 and then dividing by 2, and that you are subtracting with the number you first thought of. That just leaves the 4 which only got divided by 2.

[TheMrCarina]

I TRY MORE TIMES TO SEE AND ITS ALWAYS 2

[pokedachef]

1, 2 3 4 you are awesome to be sure!

[harmonic41]

Dude, only 6 videos. You gotta make more!!!

[StrawHatRat]

You promised...

[ForestofSilk]

Seriously. This was so AWSOME

[MarissaLovesRWJ]

mother fucker, post more videos now! please(: xD i love you!!

[LillMissPoet]

hehe Comically CUTE love the voice......sweet vid, nice attitude :)

[TheRuoka]

Hhahaha this is hilarious! 0:40 I seriously peed my pants! :D hahaah

Thanks Zach!

[PurpleSkilll]

this nigga had me geekin haah

[Trollololololful]

i didn't pick a number and follow the steps, he said ladies pick a number so i just listened.

[MrDrainbow]

LOL look at his pedo-face..hahahahah

[thepsycokillerful]

how did he hide that afro thing under his hat :S

[plop262]

Ohhh, I see. You meant to write x - (x + 2) at first but forgot the brackets. Well, it worked out! :-D

[PattyManatty]

@plop262 2 errors sometimes work out xD

[PattyManatty]

@plop262 also because i'm bored, check this out, It doesn't just work with 2.

If we do:

(ax + a^2) / a - x

it will always be a, because it can simplify to x + a - x

using 2 is just a single case of this equation, (as 4 is 2^2)

[PattyManatty]

well technically (x + 2) - x = 2, because I know some math guy is gonna nit pick that one :P

[plop262]

@PattyManatty what's there to nitpick? both statements are true, and the order doesn't matter.

[PattyManatty]

@plop262 Only because on the first one, it almost assumes that i'm subtracting the total from the initial, and forgot brackets. (Because if the brackets would have been included in that order it would have been -2, not 2)

[PattyManatty]

let's call the number x.

since we multiply by 2, add 4, and divide by 2, it can be expressed as

(2x + 4) / 2 which is just x + 2,

when you subtract this from you original you get

x - x + 2 = 2 :)

nice trick.

[DoubleDowner]

Love your shit dude ! Get on the next Epic rap battle as well

[naumangti]

lol. When he takes off his hat at 0:41, i was like wtf?

[Gamesman001]

@naumangti His hair exploded lol

[Gamesman001]

When he took his hat off his hair exploded :)

[DigidragonXD]

just do the math!

# x2

2# +4

2#+4 /2

#+2 -#

=2!!

not that hard right... didn't get why it had to be between 1-10 though...

[max9119yahoocom]

@DigidragonXD to rhyme

[lalaland0229]

This is the bench from 500 Days Of Summer!

[akuorekelate]

1-10

x2

+4

/2

-#

Equals MC squared!!

[7Hibiki]

Nice hair

[1undeadskater1]

You look like a creepy old lady with your hair back, but when you have your fro, you look normal

[randomwolf38]

The description...LOLOL

[TySeguraBlog]

I love this man.

[OrangeWolf6]

I was about to go to a different video until he took that hat off. Then I thought to myself "He can't be serious" :D

[theamazingtoot]

im a blonde so i chose 1-10 which gave me -9 so when i took (X times 2) i took -9 over X and -9 over 2 which gave me -9x + -18 then u gave me +4? so i added 4 to -18 which no i have -9X + -14. Now divide it by 2? 2/(-9X + -14) i got -4.5X + -7. Now subtract -9? -9 (-4.5X + -7) = 40.5X +63 thats weird?....

[SilverRapter]

@theamazingtoot

hmm idk how u got that but let me see. i'll guess that u picked 9 as ur number.

so 9x2 = 18

18+4 = 22.

22/2 = 11

11-9= 2

thats what u should have gotten lol

[SparklingGrey]

Mr. Napkins, you so fiiiiine. You can get my number anytime.

[twogunsheldhigh]

can you give my # to lisanova

[randomdd123]

X is your number.

(2X+4)/2 - X

= X + 2 - X

= 2

[760puppydog]

hehehe I just want to get your number! you make me smile!

[TopDoggGamer]

1(867) 555-7639

You got it

[NickYoDamus]

You are an amazing rapper. You should have won "Ego Trips The White Rappers Show". I saw that you had auditioned for it when I was looking at the old videos of it. Keep up the great work Zack!

[thetoukatly]

I guess "between 1 and 10" fits the song better than "any number in the complex plane"...

[12380738]

if you use seven its two

[missingmynemesis]

This is so cool! You got my number :)

[TheJakeJarrell]

i need more napkins please

[GuildOfWhores]

What a sexy beast.

[OriginallyInsaine]

I love how when he takes off his hat he instantly turns mixed lol

[raybeis]

Very well done - love it!!

[raybeis]

Very well done man - love it!!
