You phrased the question, with the infamous quotes, as "do the math" which is a very specific phrase. To anyone in the US that means to add things and come up with a conclusion. Not really all that much to it. I don't think anyone took it as you seriously looking for something deep. I would think that the fact that some of us took it lightly really shouldn't bother you much.
