This is just tip of the iceberg; thousand of mysterious things are left in Ethiopia to be discovered. Art, science, religion, culture… Proudly Ethiopian.

makes perfect sense to my westernized mind.  When you halve a number on one side you are dividing by 2 so multiplying the other side by 2 would keep the equation balanced…. 6 * 12 = 3 * 24 (via rules of linear transformations).  since halving an odd number results in the removal of one unit you must add back 1 group of it's counter part …. 11/2 = 10/2 when you ignore the remainder so you must account for 11 – 10 groups before moving on.

And here I thought that the Egyptians came up with this method.
