Today I will explain to you how Japanese are superior in basic maths
The fundamental reason Japanese are superior is this:
>You are taught to add from right to left
>Whereas Japanese are taught to add from left to right
This is advantageous
Consider your teacher asking you to add two numbers
>What is the sum of two hundred fifty three and six hundred seventy seven?
Right to left arithmatic means (You), dear gaijin, must wait until the teacher has finished speaking to begin your calculation
Left to right arithmatic means your Japanese peer has finished his calculation at the moment you started
Not only that, but this also saves memory
If you have to add multiple numbers consecutively
Adding left to right, you only need to remember your sum total as you are calculating
with practice, you can add numbers extremely quickly
