========== DR. JAMES GRIME: So we're
going to do a little mathematical trick that I'm
hoping that people will like and they'll try out on their
friends and family. So let's do it. We're going to write out
four-digit numbers. So like this, right? Now, you've got 3,485, but
we'll take it in turns. So give me a four-digit
number. You could just shout out four
digits if you want. Go on. BRADY HARAN: You want
one from me? DR. JAMES GRIME: Yeah. BRADY HARAN: 7,721. DR. JAMES GRIME: 7,721. And now I'll come up with a
different one, like 2,278. Give me another. BRADY HARAN: 1,891. DR. JAMES GRIME: 1,891. And I'll come up with another
one, like 8, 1-- something-- 8. And we're going to add
these together. 3,485, 7,721...
