I understand why this is wrong (order of operations dictates the division happens first, so it's really 25 - 1 = 24), but why is it funny? I don't mean "This isn't funny," I think I'm just missing the joke.
4! Is meant to be 4 factorial. 4! = 4 x 3 x 2 x 1 = 24
Aha! Got it, thank you so much.
And here I was thinking I was still decent at math. I got bamboozled...

Best math meme so far.
4! = ...Wait, that's literally the point of the post this time
