Jews make up 0.2% of the worlds population. There are 162 Jewish Nobel Prize laureates. Muslims make up 20% of the worlds population. There are 6 muslim Nobel Prize laureates. How many muslims does it take to equal the accomplishments of a single Jew?
Extra Credit:
[bigotry removed]. How many muslims does it take to equal one Jewish [bigotry removed]?
Could someone also show me how to set up the equation?

It's so horrible but I still laughed...
And the answers are 16200/6 and 162/12, whatever those are...
To set up the equation, swallow a bottle of drain cleaner...

You make an interesting point about the lack of proper education available in many Muslim-dominated areas of the world. Could it be due to some sort of socio-economic disparity within the world, or could it simply be that your neanderthal-like assumption that Muslims are less worthy than others is correct?
