Where did the american education system fail so horrendously?

where did the american education system fail so horrendously?

is social media actively making people less intelligent, or is it just giving the ever-present stupid majority a voice?

14 obviously, and I'm a brainlet, and OP is right.

It's 10
One full square equals 1
One square with an uncomplete lower right corner equals 2

>4 cubes is 5
>1 cube is thus 1.25
>9 cubes is 9*1.25 = 11.25

how fucking stupid are you?

i told you im a brainlet.i guess i wasnt clear enough. my bad sorry.

>Implying all the cubes are identical
There are clearly two types of cubes in each drawing you mongoloid

this

Since it intersected 5 times, am I stupid for thinking 12?

>5 cubes in the first drawing
>14 in the second

Why is this even considered genius? It's just a small 'riddle'/'puzzle' for circlejerks. It's like that 'only a genius can connect 9 dots with only 4 straight lines' puzzle. It has nothing to do with pure intelligence.

this problem is fucking stupid, it doesn't specify the units of the "5". if "5" is area units then is correct. if "5" is number of intersections than is correct. But 10 isn't correct ever. which is what 60,000 people commented on I presume
