Dude, be reasonable, OP just didn't put any in, reality it should have.
Just like James posted in Doyle's thread when he did it.

You know what is worse than people getting this wrong?
That when you see it written, it's normally followed by a phrase like 'see if you're a genius' or 'most people won't get this'.
Yes because in addition to most people lacking a basic grasp of fundamental mathematical concepts, they also don't care enough about it to not be shamed in to doing something about it.

Steve has 40 apples and Ojc has 1 apple, together they have 41 apples.
Fro has 40 lots of 0 apples, so add his apples to the pile and you still have 41 apples
     shocking, it works when you do it with apples

We'd all be right if we showed our workings but got it wrong. Wonders of GCSE Maths.

That's also a myth.
You get credit for knowing what you're doing, but you should actually get it right as well.
