(adsbygoogle = window.adsbygoogle || []).push({}); My math teacher, 25 years old, gave us this Math problem as Warm Up Question.

If u were to create a new Black Ops acc, you do some hack Were Your Kills = X. And Your Deaths = Y.

X = All the kills Gotten by by all COD players.
Y= All the deaths by all COD players.


Will this acc have a a positive or negative ratio??

Correct Answer by NGU_Skrillex-

"It would be negative, because someone can't get a kill without the cost of another man's life, so figuring everyone would just kill each other, the player-wide K/D ratio would be 1.00. However that is not the case, as people commit suicide, inevitably making there more deaths than kills"

Rather look at the total kills, deaths, and suicides in the entire black ops game..

1 kill will always be equal to 1 death (not including suicides)

Here is the formula:

X = Total Kills
Y = Total Deaths (from another player)
Z = Total Suicides

Kill Death Ratio = X / (Y+Z)

The formula could also be this as the total kills will always equal the total deaths..

V = X (Total Kills) = Y (Total Deaths)
Z = Suicides

Kill Death Ratio = V / (V+Z)

Formula for this is.
W - X - Y = Z

W-Total kills
X-Total deaths
Y-Total Suicides
Z-Answer will always be Negative(-)

(+)W and (-)X will cancel because for every kill there will be exact same kills and deaths (not suicides). Y is suicides, therefore it's going to be negative. I hope people understand and Skrillex is right.
So this will be the inequality..
W - X - Y < / = 1.00k/d
^^^^
(less than or equal to..)


See even you understand. It's never gonna be positive. Not even 0.00. Its not possible no matter how you look at it.

Your equation did nothing but compute total suicides...

I meant to put ...</= 0.00k/d
but yeah i understand some people talking about actual k/d's from people
