    Below is a video that showcases the mathematics errors found in famous movies.
    \nChallenge:<\/strong> try to figure out the math errors as you watch.
    \nAlso, from this video you can see that everyone makes math mistakes, even screenwriters who review their work multiple times. Now you know why it’s extremely important to double check your work and maybe even triple check it (especially if you become a screenwriter)!<\/p>\n
