Rigorously define if, goat, sheep, ship, Captain, onboard, old, the symbol "2", the symbol "6", the symbol "1", and the symbol "0", and the rules for combining the second symbols together

how does it feel to be such a brainlet?

>>9476783
No one would ever be captain of a ship that only has 10 goats on it. They would be so embarrassed.

Potato. xD

>>9476783
oh i get it

>>9476823
Do you? Prove it. xD

great thread so far

from the right perspective, we can observe that the captain is made from atoms which were produced at the start of the universe, and i could go on to calculate how long ago that was based on a some underlying theory, yet however we regard a physical model of the universe and its origin this would be underlined by an epistemological substructure impossible to shake. no matter what observations we make or how numerous can we observe a continuity of time from one point to another and even less so before we can make an observation. suppose the big bang theory is correct. how do we understand our concept of time before then? how do we ensure a continuity of time between then and now? perhaps another formulation would be to create a function that produces the age of the ships captain. does such a function exist? if no such function exists, have we proven that there is no solution? in seeking to take full advantage of numerical methods, rigorous definitions which allow us to speak surely about such things as functions have fallen to the wayside. i hope that in a future mathematics we may recapture the importance of rigor that the greeks laid out so many years ago.

26 Sheep
10 Goats
1 Captain
Using simple calculations I can tell that there is in fact one ship :

26 - 10 = 12,
12 / 12 = 1

Thus we can assume that there is one captain.

The ship is transporting live stock thus we can tell that the ship must also contain food for said stock, thus it is in fact a boat.

Boat is spelt B-O-A-T
Lawyer is spelt L-A-W-Y-E-R
Both words share an A, however it is not in the same place.
Using some simple calculus I can however rearrange the word BOAT to BAOT.

BAOT stands for Boarded And On Time.

Assuming the Captain boarded the ship in time we can figure out that he is in fact on the vessel.

Thus the captain will have to be old enough to be able to board a ship.

He is probably 36.

This isn't an original "You should be able to solve this" question. This is a sick prank the Chinese pull on their children, but it does provide a mental exercise.

My answer is: I don't know the answer but your little sister is a slut.

>>9476783
There isn't a captain, there are only livestock aboard.

At least 28, since in China you can get a boat license when you are 23 and the combined weight of the animals makes it so you need to have at least 5 years of experience driving a boat to be allowed to transport such a big vessel.

How come you guys haven't solved this yet? It's so simple.

According to https://datausa.io/profile/soc/535020/, the average age of ship captains, for the US at least, is 42.6, so that seems a fair guess
