Came across this quote from an Amazon employee yesterday that had me scratching my head for a while:
We sold more books today that didn’t sell at all yesterday than we sold today of all the books that did sell yesterday.

This is my understanding of the quote:
(no. of books sold today) - (no. of books left over yesterday) > (no. of books sold today) - (no. of books sold yesterday)
cool phrase:
here its my version in maths:
A: books sold yestereday
B: books not sold yesterday
“Today we sold more of B than A”
