It's not homework. It's just interesting to see how many people do not know the order of operations. There is a poll on Facebook and a bunch my friends have been getting it wrong. Someone on these forums also got it wrong, actually. :D

I just wanted to see people's responses.

8/2(2+2) = ?

oddeuro asked me something like that yesterday...why do you all need help with maths?

first you have to calculate the thing in the brackets. or you use the distributive law.

8/(2x2 + 2x2)
or
8/2x4


the answer is 1.
