This is great on paper, but I'm not sure how well this will work on a message board but it's worth a try. o.k. add these numbers up and tell me what you end up with. You have to scroll down after you say each number. Remember to add them together. For example: 18 + 68 then you would say 86 then 86 + 14 then you would say 100 and so on. I hope this works otherwise it'll look silly.  o.k. start adding.
1000
30
1000
60
1000
10
o.k. now what's your answer. Did you get 4000 or 3100. Be honest. The correct answer is 3100. Most everyone comes up with 4000.

I guess it doesn't work on a message board. Write it down on a sheet of paper and cover each number with your hand as you ask someone to add them together. After they mention each one, scroll down to the next number until you get to the end. I'll betcha they come up with 4000.

Did you get 4000 when you first did it? If so, do you remember what tripped you up?

I got 4000 the first 3 times.  I was adding in my head and well you do that, you get used to the first digit increasing (because it keeps going up by 1000) so when you get to that ten, you automatically carry the one to the 3, making it 4000, instead of carrying it to the 0. Just sloppy addition and paying to close attention to patterns than the actual math, that's all.

I got 3100 as well, I guess i'll have to try it on someone on paper to really see if they could get 4000, but i dont know how they would.
