I know it as well as I know 2 + 2 is 4. I learned it in college.
This isn't an opinion...it's what is taught



Base3: There is no 4, 2 + 2 is 11.
Base2: I concur, but 10 + 10 is 100.
Base1: You are mistaken, 10 + 10 is 1000.
Base4: Of course there's a 4, but in name only as 2 + 2 is 10.
Base5: Well I'm with Aqua Girl, 2 + 2 is indeed 4.


God I haven't seen math like this since 7th grade! Wow. And apparently I
remembered the base systems wrong.
