This is really interesting. It's kind of a brain teaser.
Condition : You must do this in your head. Don't use paper to write out the problem.
Take 1000 and add 40 to it. Now add another 1000.
Now add 30. And another 1000.
Now add 20. Now add another 1000. Now add 10.
What is the total?
[Spoil]Did you get 5000? Most people do, but the correct answer is actually 4100. If you don't believe me, try using a calculator or writing it on paper.[/Spoil]
Thanks.

Shouldn't it be 2100?
-1000+40+1000+30+1000+20+1000+10=2100

Take == -
When you talk math.
Like (Danish example)
Tag 2 æbler for bunken. Nu vil der jo så være -2 æbler mindre.

Nej der vil være 2 æbler mindre. Ikke -2 to mindre....
Du bruger minus til når du kommer under 0.

Det kunne også være at han tog 1000 som start værdi.
Jeg tager 2 og ligger til 2 og det giver 4.
Da hvor han tager dem fra er ukendt. Og hvis vi skal have det med bliver det hele minus.
