Two plus two is/are four - WordReference Forums : I think I've heard "two plus two are four", but to me, a number is a singular item (hence "a number"). However, the equation, in the mind of (most?) native English speakers, must be a singular concept as well.
"Ten years has passed" or "Ten years have passed"? : I would definitely use a singular in "Ten days/weeks/months/years is a long time to wait."

Come to think of it, it seems odd to me that anyone would want to use the complicated and dubious "three times less", when "a third" is so much simpler (and, to me, instinctive).
