One Plus One

Most kids will know that 1 + 1 = 2. But to adults. It has quite a variety of answers. The following is a list of answers.


  1. 1 + 1 =2 (simple arithmetic)
  2. 1 + 1 =11 (simply put two 1 together)
  3. 1 + 1 = II (roman number)
  4. 1 + 1 = ∥ (parallel symbol
  5. 1 + 1 = 1 (logical OR function)
  6. 1 + 1 = 1 (overlap two 1)
  7. 1+1 = 王 (if you turn your head side ways)
  8. 1+1 = 土 (if you overlap two 1 with + and look side ways)
  9. 1 + 1= 士 (same way except using a smaller 1)
  10. 1 + 1 = 干 (same way but turn your head the other side)
The above is based on the principle that the ones stays in its natural vertical form. If you can place any one or both side ways,  It has another dimension.

  1. 1 + 1 = T (one vertical one horizontal)
  2. 1 + 1 = + (same as above but move the horizontal one to the middle.
  3. 1 + 1 = L (move the horizontal one all the way down and to the right.
  4. 1 + 1 = Γ ( Greek Gamma character)
  5. 1 + 1 = 二 (both placed horizontally)
  6. 1 + 1 = 一 (overlap both horizontally)
  7. 1 + 1 = V (bottom end touch each other)
  8. 1 + 1 = X (both touch center)
  9. 1 + 1 = Λ (Greek Lamda character)
  10. 1 + 1 = = (equal symbol)
  11. 1 + 1 = > (greater than symbol)
  12. 1 + 1 = < (less than symbol)
The above is not an exhaustive list. There are probably more that can be made out of it.

So, don't just take things as is, think out of the box and you find a lot of simple things can be viewed in different ways.
