Step aside, everyone. This is a no-brainer for me.

1 + 1 has the answer of 2 in a normal case. However, I believe that this is far too simplistic for a math test. So, I claim that this is a trick question. It's propaganda.

We need to think outside the box here. Let's use what the test wants you to answer, which is 2, and add it to the 1's. The sum of this 1 + 1 + 2 equals 4. The square root of 4 is 2, so we can see a good connection here already. Now, what is 4 the square root of? 16. If you put all these used numbers together, you get the equation of 1 + 1 + 2 + 4 + 16. The sum of this equation is 24.

What shall we do from here, you may ask?

Well, we can refer to the Illuminati to advance. A triangle has 3 sides, and the Illuminati's typical symbol is a triangle. 24 divided by 3 is 8. 24 + 8 = 32.

Let's remember the number 32.

You can see a connection between all these numbers, but we should go further than simple math. Some of the greatest minds in history include Galileo Galilei, Albert Einstein, and Stephen Hawking.

Galileo Galilei died on January 8th, while Stephan Hawking was born on January 8th.

Albert Einstein was born on March 14th, while Stephan Hawking died on March 14th.

So, Stephan Hawking's birth date is the same as Galileo Galilei's death date, and Stephan Hawking's death date is the same as Albert Einstein's birth date. They are connected by the days of the same months.

Stephan Hawking appears to be the focus here.

Stephan Hawking was diagnosed with ALS at the age of 21, and was expected to not see his 25th birthday. 25 - 21 = 4.

ALS is a three-letter abbreviation that stands for "amyotrophic lateral sclerosis", which is composed of 27 letters. 27 + 4 = 31.

Remember the number 32 from earlier? That's where it comes in.

Due to Galileo Galilei, Albert Einstein, and Stephan Hawking sharing connected birth/death months, we can relate to months with the numbers 32 and 31.

A month can have a maximum of 31 days. We have the number 31.

32 - 31 = 1.

The Illuminati triangle has 1 eye, so we're connecting back to that with this.

So, ladies and gentlemen, I conclude, that 1 + 1 does not equal 2. It equals 1.

Now go ace that test, math Octopuzz.
