from TED-Ed · host TED-Ed

Practice more problem-solving at https://brilliant.org/TedEd--As Numberland’s best detective, you thought you’d seen it all. But the desiccated corpses of prominent natural numbers have been showing up all over the city. A lockdown is ordered from sundown to sunrise, and it’s still not enough to stop what can only be described as a vampiric feeding frenzy. Can you figure out why the citizens of Numberland are being attacked? Henri Picciotto shows how. Lesson by Henri Picciotto, directed by Igor Coric, Artrake Studio.Support Our Non-Profit Mission----------------------------------------------Support us on Patreon: http://bit.ly/TEDEdPatreonCheck out our merch: http://bit.ly/TEDEDShop----------------------------------------------Connect With Us----------------------------------------------Sign up for our newsletter: http://bit.ly/TEDEdNewsletterFollow us on Facebook: http://bit.ly/TEDEdFacebookFind us on Twitter: http://bit.ly/TEDEdTwitterPeep us on Instagram: http://bit.ly/TEDEdInstagram----------------------------------------------Keep Learning----------------------------------------------View full lesson: https://ed.ted.com/lessons/can-you-solve-the-feeding-frenzy-riddle-henri-picciottoDig deeper with additional resources: https://ed.ted.com/lessons/can-you-solve-the-feeding-frenzy-riddle-henri-picciotto#digdeeperAnimator's website: https://www.artrake.com----------------------------------------------Thank you so much to our patrons for your support!
