Re. 1 + Re. 1 = Re 2 (if the money being added concerns a Satyam employee)<br />C. Re. 1 + Re. 1 = Re. 100000 (if the money being added concerns him)<br />D. Interest on Rs. 1 lakh in 1 year = Rs. 7000 (normally in India)<br />E. Interest on Rs. 1 lakh in 1 year = Rs. 356 lakh (for him, entered in the balance sheets)<br />F. Rs. 5040 crore = Rs. 5361 crore, so 321 crore = 0<br />G. Satyam = Truth for everybody else except R. Raju<br />H. Re. 1 + Re. 1 = Re. 100000 for 20 years, but Re. 1 + Re. 1 = Re. 1000000 + jail after 2008<br />If you want further details, check <a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Satyam_scandal#Details">here</a>.<div class="blogger-post-footer"><img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/4930311307332517817-3404917709952362098?l=math.lol-land.in' alt='' /></div>The Republicnoreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4930311307332517817.post-71982274034892840722009-07-04T10:13:00.000-07:002009-07-14T11:23:27.217-07:00<p>In mathematics anywhere else, series are long chains of numbers; like 1, 2, 3, 4, ...</p><p>In Lolland, they're long chains of words.</p><p>So, you could have the Tamil Nadu CM series: Karunanidhi, Jayalalitha, Karunanidhi, Jayalalitha, Karunanidhi, Jayalalitha...</p><p>Or the RGV movie series: flop, flop, hit, hit, flop, flop, flop, RGV Ki Aag (didn't want to insult the word 'flop' for this one, flop, flop...</p><p>The Devdas series: drink, drink, drink, fight with wife, drink, leave wife, drink, drink, go to brothel, go to brothel, drink, drink, drink, die</p><p>The Indian political party in power series: do nothing, do nothing (for 4 years 11 months), increase reservations by 50%, promise free rice, increase reservations by a further 10%, win elections, do nothing...</p><p>The number of important matches the West Indies team has won in each of the last ten years: 0, 0, 0, 0, 0, 0, ...</p><div class="blogger-post-footer"><img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/4930311307332517817-7198227403489284072?l=math.lol-land.in' alt='' /></div>The Republicnoreply@blogger.com0
