Angry Raging at people's inability to multiply

So I guy says selling ectos for 6.5k each...so I trade him 97.5k for 15. He goes no, 15 is always 100k.

How does it make sense?

i give her a 5 dollar bill
literally one minute later of calculations or something she asks me how much change i should get back.

This guy tells me the earth is flat... So I ask him how gravity works. Just kidding.
In Kama selling lockpicks for 1.25k, and this guy has the audacity to offer me 1.2K per pick. I snap! Throwing all sorts of reasons in his face before finishing with a huge comment on how he is not reading my selling party search note that says "1.25K" not "1.2K". But in all reality when I told him that I was selling at 1.25k he just said that he could get them for 1.2k from trader so I should sell them to him at that price or less..

I have four children. I'm good at multiplying.

I was told there'd be no math.

Or ya know people who are broke and can't afford to go to college yet, or similar situations?

I don't personally work at one. But really making an asumption about people based on where they work? Really?
I do have one friend who has 2 college degrees. She works at a Burger King because she can't get a job with her degree's. Shes working there until she can find a way into grad school or a job. Now should we assume she is incapable of doing math?
