Moon-faced Assassin of Joy @NomeDaBarbarian Replying to @pjmdoll It's either 1 or 16 depending on which mathematician you listen to, because order of operations isn't a hard and fast rule, and math is really just a language And nothing is true. Mixed division and multiplication Similarly, there can be ambiguity in the use of the slash symbol / in expressions such as 1/2x.5 If one rewrites this expression as 1 2x and then interprets the division symbol as indicating multiplication by the reciprocal, this becomes: 1 2xx 1x xlxx. X = With this interpretation 1 2x is equal to (1 2)x.li][6]| However, in some of the academic literature multiplication denoted by juxtaposition (also known as implied multiplication) is interpreted as having higher precedence than division, so that 1 2x equals 1 (2x), not (1 2)x For example, the manuscript submission instructions for the Physical Review journals state that multiplication is of higher precedence than division with a slash,7 and this is also the convention observed in prominent physics textbooks such as the Course of Theoretical Physics by Landau and Lifshitz and the Feynman Lectures on Physics.lal 7:51 PM Jul 30, 2019 Twitter Web App

Either one is Correct

George W. Kush @supermaddd Replying to @pjmdoll In PEMDAS multiplication and division take equal priority so you do whichever is first from left to right.

@baesikhh Replying to @pjmdoll The replies lowkey making me heated so I solved it. Btw imma math major and also tutor math to high school kids. I'm open to corrections tho 8/2(2+2) Solve the parenthesis first!! 8/2(4) You can not start multiplying/dividing from left to right until the parenthesis is gone. The parenthesis is actually implying that 2x 4 is ONE term so you have to rewrite it as 8/8 which gives you 1 (Side note: The reason 8/2(4) 16 isn't right is because it implies (8/2) x 4. Even if you don't follow pemdas, you can see that this isn't our equation. Our equation can be rewritten as (8/2) x (1/4) which would give you 1. Even simple reasoning would make you realize that dividing should not result in a bigger number) Btw most calculators are programmed to solve from left to right and not follow pemdas which is why you get the wrong answer. Try plugging in something like 2-6x2. According to pemdas, you'd get -10, but a lot of calculators will give you -8 8:26 PM Jul 30, 2019 Twitter for iPhone
