Base 10 VS Base 12 and Oranges? A look at the decimal system and the duodecimal / dozenal system http://youtu.be/HVk_viJEDII
Math is fine,
but it can be better.
If nature could choose between building things with squares or triangles. It would choose triangles.
Triangles are stronger structures.
When we take a square and a triangle and apply forces to them. a square will slant and buckle but a triangle will hold strong.
That is why we use triangles to build bridges.
The triangle is the most basic shape. 3 sides and 3 corners.
We see 3 and multiples of 3 popping up in nature all the time.
Lets look at something as simple as a circle for example
If we wanted to pack a bunch of circles together in the most efficient way possible we would do it like this.
1 in the middle surrounded by 6. you couldn't pack them closer if you wanted to.
this is how a grocer would pack oranges.
now if we connect the center of the circles with straight lines we see a hexagonal pattern emerge. This pattern is used by nature in bee hives.
Its the most efficient way to use space. Nature wants to talk in 3s.
Now when we look at our math system today. we use something called the decimal system.
the decimal system is groupings of 10.
If we want to use math to solve problems found in nature. then by using the decimal system we are just making it hard on ourselves.
the natural grouping of things is 3s. 10 does not divide by 3 very well.
infact 10 doesn't divide well by much at all.
Say you had 10 oranges and you were bringing them home to your kids and told them to divide them equally amongst themselves.
If you had 2 kids it would be fine, or 5 kids it would be fine. but if you had 3 or 4 or 6 kids they would start arguing about who should get more. and lets face it, you were giving them oranges to shut them up for a while.
Now lets say you had 12 oranges. If you wanted to divide them up amongst the kids evenly you could have 2,3,4 or 6 kids and everything would be fine.
Using 12 as our grouping order is better.This system is called the dozenal system
It makes everyday maths easier and makes a-rith-ma-tic a more enjoyable learning experience.
12 and 3 are best friends.
the decimal system and the world we live in are not.
start counting in 12s.
a counting system based on 3s.
makes life easier, dont you agree?

This will reveal the final digit of pi. Although it cannot be calculated, it can be found using music. This is the first 17 digits of pi base 12 played in the 12 musical tones, perfectly resolved with one note added. You know how it feels to finish someone else's sentence?

Indudablemente su origen también está ligado al cálculo por los dedos: Puesto que los cuatro dedos de la mano (a excepción del pulgar) tienen 12 falanges en total (video), pasando el dedo pulgar por estas falanges se puede contar de 1 hasta 12. Después se toma 12 como la unidad del orden siguiente, etc. Los vestigios del sistema duodecimal se han conservado en la lengua hablada hasta nuestros días: en lugar de «doce» a menudo decimos «docena». Muchos objetos (cuchillos, tenedores, huevos, las horas del día, los meses, platos, pañuelos, etc.) suelen contarse por docenas y no por decenas. Su relación con el sistema sexagesimal es evidente, en este caso el sistema igual que el duodecimal, se ha conservado en cierta medida hasta nuestros días (por ejemplo, en la subdivisión de la hora en 60 minutos y del minuto en 60 segundos, así como en el sistema análogo de medición de los ángulos: 1 grado = 60 minutos y 1 minuto = 60 segundos). Pero, en conjunto, este sistema que precisa de sesenta «cifras» diferentes es bastante complicado y menos cómodo que el decimal aunque presenta ciertas ventajas.

The duodecimal system (also known as base-12 or dozenal) is a positional notation numeral system using twelve as its base. In this system, the number ten may be written as "A", "T" or "X", and the number eleven as "B" or "E" (another common notation, introduced by Sir Isaac Pitman, is to use a rotated "2" for ten and a reversed "3" for eleven). The number twelve (that is, the number written as "12" in the base ten numerical system) is instead written as "10" in duodecimal (meaning "1 dozen and 0 units", instead of "1 ten and 0 units"), whereas the digit string "12" means "1 dozen and 2 units" (i.e. the same number that in decimal is written as "14"). Similarly, in duodecimal "100" means "1 gross", "1000" means "1 great gross", and "0.1" means "1 twelfth" (instead of their decimal meanings "1 hundred", "1 thousand", and "1 tenth").

Base 10 VS Base 12 and Oranges? A look at the decimal system and the duodecimal / dozenal system http://youtu.be/HVk_viJEDII
Math is fine,
but it can be better.
If nature could choose between building things with squares or triangles. It would choose triangles.
Triangles are stronger structures.
When we take a square and a triangle and apply forces to them. a square will slant and buckle but a triangle will hold strong.
That is why we use triangles to build bridges.
The triangle is the most basic shape. 3 sides and 3 corners.
We see 3 and multiples of 3 popping up in nature all the time.
Lets look at something as simple as a circle for example
If we wanted to pack a bunch of circles together in the most efficient way possible we would do it like this.
1 in the middle surrounded by 6. you couldn't pack them closer if you wanted to.
this is how a grocer would pack oranges.
now if we connect the center of the circles with straight lines we see a hexagonal pattern emerge. This pattern is used by nature in bee hives.
Its the most efficient way to use space. Nature wants to talk in 3s.
Now when we look at our math system today. we use something called the decimal system.
the decimal system is groupings of 10.
If we want to use math to solve problems found in nature. then by using the decimal system we are just making it hard on ourselves.
the natural grouping of things is 3s. 10 does not divide by 3 very well.
infact 10 doesn't divide well by much at all.
Say you had 10 oranges and you were bringing them home to your kids and told them to divide them equally amongst themselves.
If you had 2 kids it would be fine, or 5 kids it would be fine. but if you had 3 or 4 or 6 kids they would start arguing about who should get more. and lets face it, you were giving them oranges to shut them up for a while.
Now lets say you had 12 oranges. If you wanted to divide them up amongst the kids evenly you could have 2,3,4 or 6 kids and everything would be fine.
Using 12 as our grouping order is better.This system is called the dozenal system
It makes everyday maths easier and makes a-rith-ma-tic a more enjoyable learning experience.
12 and 3 are best friends.
the decimal system and the world we live in are not.
start counting in 12s.
a counting system based on 3s.
makes life easier, dont you agree?
wn.com/Base 10 Vs Base 12 And Oranges A Look At The Decimal System And The Duodecimal Dozenal System
Base 10 VS Base 12 and Oranges? A look at the decimal system and the duodecimal / dozenal system http://youtu.be/HVk_viJEDII
Math is fine,
but it can be better.
If nature could choose between building things with squares or triangles. It would choose triangles.
Triangles are stronger structures.
When we take a square and a triangle and apply forces to them. a square will slant and buckle but a triangle will hold strong.
That is why we use triangles to build bridges.
The triangle is the most basic shape. 3 sides and 3 corners.
We see 3 and multiples of 3 popping up in nature all the time.
Lets look at something as simple as a circle for example
If we wanted to pack a bunch of circles together in the most efficient way possible we would do it like this.
1 in the middle surrounded by 6. you couldn't pack them closer if you wanted to.
this is how a grocer would pack oranges.
now if we connect the center of the circles with straight lines we see a hexagonal pattern emerge. This pattern is used by nature in bee hives.
Its the most efficient way to use space. Nature wants to talk in 3s.
Now when we look at our math system today. we use something called the decimal system.
the decimal system is groupings of 10.
If we want to use math to solve problems found in nature. then by using the decimal system we are just making it hard on ourselves.
the natural grouping of things is 3s. 10 does not divide by 3 very well.
infact 10 doesn't divide well by much at all.
Say you had 10 oranges and you were bringing them home to your kids and told them to divide them equally amongst themselves.
If you had 2 kids it would be fine, or 5 kids it would be fine. but if you had 3 or 4 or 6 kids they would start arguing about who should get more. and lets face it, you were giving them oranges to shut them up for a while.
Now lets say you had 12 oranges. If you wanted to divide them up amongst the kids evenly you could have 2,3,4 or 6 kids and everything would be fine.
Using 12 as our grouping order is better.This system is called the dozenal system
It makes everyday maths easier and makes a-rith-ma-tic a more enjoyable learning experience.

Indudablemente su origen también está ligado al cálculo por los dedos: Puesto que los cuatro dedos de la mano (a excepción del pulgar) tienen 12 falanges en total (video), pasando el dedo pulgar por estas falanges se puede contar de 1 hasta 12. Después se toma 12 como la unidad del orden siguiente, etc. Los vestigios del sistema duodecimal se han conservado en la lengua hablada hasta nuestros días: en lugar de «doce» a menudo decimos «docena». Muchos objetos (cuchillos, tenedores, huevos, las horas del día, los meses, platos, pañuelos, etc.) suelen contarse por docenas y no por decenas. Su relación con el sistema sexagesimal es evidente, en este caso el sistema igual que el duodecimal, se ha conservado en cierta medida hasta nuestros días (por ejemplo, en la subdivisión de la hora en 60 minutos y del minuto en 60 segundos, así como en el sistema análogo de medición de los ángulos: 1 grado = 60 minutos y 1 minuto = 60 segundos). Pero, en conjunto, este sistema que precisa de sesenta «cifras» diferentes es bastante complicado y menos cómodo que el decimal aunque presenta ciertas ventajas.
