So An Infinite Number of Mathematicians Walk Into a Bar....

Math joke from Anna, the bartender and civil engineering student: 

An infinite number of mathematicians walk into a bar. The first one tells the bartender he wants a beer. The second one says he wants half a beer. The third one says he wants a fourth of a beer. The bartender puts two beers on the bar and says “You guys need to learn your limits.”

  3. It's been a long time since I actively studied maths, so am I to assume that if the infinite number of mathematicians continues to order at a rate of half the previous order, the sum total of their orders will never exceed two beers?

  4. I was thinking the same thing as Matt Newham when I read it.

  5. They got the beers for free when the barman kicked them out. They asked for separate bills
