Stupid math problem from facebook post


Recommended Posts

It cracks me up how many people got this problem wrong and were so sure of themselves that they would call others out. It was entertaining until you guys made my brain explode with all your Ti talk.

:P that's how us computer guys do... lol we get into computer talk and forget there are other ppl around temporarily lmao

Thanks I was pretty excited about the alt myself. kind of like a school girl, in a dress, on a swing. lol

It's warming up enough that the donut-punching cyclist douchenozzles are getting their two wheeled fagmobiles out.

...so order of operations/PEMDAS doesn't work in this situation? Well fuck all my math teachers logic

It is all about how you define PEMDAS.

1- Parentheses

2- Exponents

3- Multiplication and Division(both hold the same weight)

4- Addition and Subtraction(both hold same weight)

It could very easily be called PEDMSA

I've always been told multiplication first then division and addition first before subtraction no matter what, I'm bout to go ape shit on some teachers lol

it 9,

6 divided by 2 is still 6 divided by 2, parentheses dont change that.

its 6/2 * (1+2)

you can even think of it like (6/2)(1+3)

-parentheses first

(6/2)*(1+3)

(3) * (3)

so

3*3=9

Yes you are correct.

Where people are going wrong is multiplying 2(1+2) and then dividing 6/6 and getting 1. That is incorrect.
