Classic Mathematical Joke

A mathematician finishes a large meal and says: √(-1/64)


Adam Richman from the TV show Man versus Food

Confused?

√-1 = i            and as we all know         √64 = 8

Hence, the mathematician actually said i/8 (I over ate).

To quote the late great Frank Carson "It's the way I tell 'em".
