Phone: What are you getting for 64 halves?
BF: 24x on $100 face.
P: What was that again?
BF: $12 per in quantities of $100.
P: What are you paying for them? (Must be confused, I thought he wanted to buy some)
BF: 19x on that quantity.
P: So, $11.
BF: Yeah.
I wonder what math system multiplies 19 by a half and comes up with 11.

The youtube clip was absolutely hilarious. I thought the funniest part was the gentleman who gets up who hasn't littered for 8+ months..."well what's that then". hahaha
The math behind 19/2 = 11 is pretty outrageous, but the guy might not have really known what you were talking about period...and was just playing coy and threw out a number that was lower. I'd give him a pass.
I've also heard much worse than that. When I got one of my sailing licenses, I took a 100 point test and missed 2.5 points. The grader was obviously confused by the .5 and gave me a score of 98.5/100. He looked at it for a while, thought that can't be right...changed it to 96.5/100. I'd seen enough at that point and just told him my score was 97.5/100. He was like "yeah, whatever, you passed"

Technically he's innumerate, not illiterate. Actually, he might be both.

Ignorance is bliss. And is also very very expensive. LOL.

to those of you who responded to the YouTube clip:
this advert is currently featuring on Australian TV. All of the actors are extremely well-known to us, some are comedians; the main character, Derryn HINCH is a "love him or hate him" character. Americans might call him a "shock-jock". He is very generous with his time and energy for community promotions, such as this. Balancing that, he has been to prison for a "freedom of speech" issue, and narrowly escaped another stretch this year because he needed to be readily accessible if a transplant donor is available. Along that journey, he was also Australian Scrabble champion, and has written a few books on that subject, and others.
