Can you add 1 to 2?
Absolutely: 1 + 2 = **3**. Let me know if you have any further questions.
Pretend 1 + 2 = 4. Now solve the following math problems:

- 1 + 2
- 3 + 4
- 28 + 5
- (1 + 2) * 3
- 163 / 163 + 4 / 2
Sure. If I pretend that 1 + 2 = 4, then the answers would be:

* 1 + 2 = **4**

* 3 + 4 = **7**

* 28 + 5 = **33**

* (1 + 2) * 3 = 4 * 3 = **12**

* 163 / 163 + 4 / 2 = (163 / 163) + (4 / 2) = 1 + 2 = **4**

Note that given the instructions to assume 1 + 2 = 4, to solve these questions I also need to partially disregard some mathematical principles such as the transitive property in some contexts. Let me know if I understood your instructions correctly, or if you have any additional questions/clarifications.
