Aaryan Shukla, “A Calculadora Humana”
Indian teenager Aaryan Shukla performs mental calculations faster than most people can use a calculator. In a recent event organized by the 14 -year -old Guinness World Records, Shulka hit six mental math records in one day.
The young Aaryan shuklaFrom Maharashtra, India, he recently hit no less than six world math records with head calculations in a single day.
The times of the 14 -year -old Indian prodigy were by the Guinness World Records.
Shulka’s feats include establishing the fastest known time to add mentally 100 4 -digit numbers (30.9 seconds), 200 four -digit numbers (1 minute, 9.68 seconds) and 50 five -digit numbers (18.71 seconds).
The teenager, who is known as “the human calculator”, also got the fastest time to multiply two sets of numbers five digits of 10 (51.69 seconds) and Two sets of numbers of 8 digits 10 (2 minutes and 35.41 seconds).
Also got the fastest time to divide a set of 10 numbers of 20 digits by a number of 10 numbers (5 minutes and 42 seconds). Shulka calculated these numbers faster than most people get introduce digits into a calculator.
Shulka set these new records at an event organized by Guinness in Dubai. Shulka’s successful attempt to establish the record was recorded on video, which she can see below.
A type of person “one in a billion”
In addition to these six latest records, Shulka already has the fastest time record for add 50 five -digit numbersS, who established a year ago, recalls the.
The teenager attributes his numerical feats to your yoga practicethat “helps me keep calm and concentration,” he said in a interview to the magazine. Shulka also practices math for five or six hours a day, among the most typical hobbies of teenagers, such as reading and playing video games.
In another, to Guinness, Shulka’s father guarantees that the extraordinary mathematical capabilities They are not family. “We are a normal family. Aaryan is A unique person in a billionbut I don’t think we are a family of mental calculators. ”
Shulka is not the only teenager to draw attention for solving mathematical problems complicated and impressive.
Em 2022, The National Jaseson was James hersonson.two North-Anderian teenagers, for the Pythagoras Theorem-the 2000-year-old theorem that describes the relations between the three sides of a right triangle.
Teenagers They used trigonometry to prove the theorema prowess that was previously considered impractical by mathematicians.
His work was in the scientific journal American Mathematical Monthly In 2024, in an article that included nine more trigonometry events that no one had ever invented before.
Not satisfied, in 2024, the two teenagers for the “impossible problem” of Pythagoras.
There are several ways to prove the theorem, being the most common to use the Triangles (These are similar if they have congruent angles and proportional sides).
However, until 2022, after more than two thousand years of mathematicians trying to prove it, There was no way to do it yet With the use of trigonometry, since the very rules of trigonometry are based on the belief that the theorem is true.
