One branch of science that created a lot of lazy people do is math. The number of figures and formulas that make some people seem to confuse allergies, even choose to avoid.
But not for a professor from the University of Oxford, England. Andrew Wiles managed to solve mathematical equations aged 300 years or better known as Fermat's Last Theorem, or Fermat's Last Theorem.
"There is no solution to the equation number xn + yn = zn when n is greater than 2," said the professor, as reported by CNN.
Equation of Fermat's Last Theorem was first proposed by Pierre de Fermat in 1637. He is an expert in the field of mathematics known as the French and the most intelligent people in the world for more than 300 years.
But in the 1990s, Professor Andrew finally managed to solve the problem. And it's on their achievements, the professor was awarded the Abel Prize in 2016 this-- includes cash of US $ 700,000

The award was given by the Norwegian Academy of Science and Letters with an official ceremony attended by Crown Prince Haakon of Norway.
"Miles is one of the few people
who are experts in the field of mathematics. If he was not the only one, Wiles proved the theorem could be headlines around the world," said Abel Prize Committee.
"In 1994, he managed to solve a mathematical equation of Fermat's Last Theorem. Which at the time was the most famous equation and can not be solved throughout history."
Wiles interest (62) on a mathematical theorem is starting to grow when he was 10 years old. At that time, he found a copy of Fermat's Last Theorem in a local library near his home in Cambridge, England.

"From that moment I knew that I would not let it go. I should be able to finish it," said Wiles.
Over the past 7 years, Wiles secretly working intensively to solve the equation at Princeton University. In 1994, Wiles managed to find the answer, by combining the three disciplines of mathematics in modular forms, elliptic curves and Galois representations.
"I'm very lucky. Not only can solve the problem, but it also opens the door to a new era in the field that I elaborated," said Wiles.
"The problems that previously seemed inaccessible, is now open."
"You'll never forget the time you manage to find a major breakthrough - it is the thing that keeps you alive," he added.
