Math

Why does dividing by a fraction make the number bigger?

Great question! Dividing by a fraction is really asking "how many of these small pieces fit in?" β€” try it with pizza slices and it clicks fast. πŸ•

My gadget idea feels boring. What do I do?

Try combining two things you already like into one invention β€” that's how a lot of "boring" ideas turn interesting! ✨
