125 potatoes seems on target for military purposes.
My recipe says to dice them, but my hand is getting sore drawing all the dots.
That some Amelia Bedelia type shit.
This is going over my head, I need a math tuber.
5 cubed as in 5 to the power of 3
The response is clever because to reverse it you say you’re looking for the cube root of 125
Potatoes are tubers.
Interestingly, the page says regular potatoes are stem tubers, differentiating them from and acknowledging the existence of root tubers, which includes sweet potatoes.
Are you a fruit man or a root man?
I’m an ass man.
Woosh
Yeah but normally root alone refers to the square root, so you’d still end up with just over 11 potatoes
Which is a lot more reasonable. It’s a big soup.
That post is fantastic.
This is where precise language is important! The recipe should have specified 5 cubic potatoes, to distinguish them from the 1-dimensional kind
Damn, all I have are these quadratic potatoes…
Potatoes are not vegetables, they are tubers; the leafy green matter is the vegetable.
in you apply quantity calculus you can see why this argument is nothing more than a joke, became the potato is in the base of the exponent operation.
The profile discrepency makes this even funnier.
Real “streets vs sheets” energy here.
