Once Again Social Media Exposes Failed American Education

PEMDAS - Addition/Subtraction - perform these operations as they appear left to right, so…

10-4+6

6+6 = 12

10-2^2+6
10-4+6
10-10 = 0

0 math was always my worst subject.

In Ontario Canada we use BEDMAS



Did I just embarrass myself?

Yes

 

[Micky Mikey]

Its either 0 or 12.

 

[Seoul Gleou]

In Ontario Canada we use BEDMAS

So 2² is 4

10 - 4 + 6

4 + 6 = 10

10 - 10


Answer is 0, no?

Did I just embarrass myself?

Time to change the thread title

Its either 0 or 12.

Pick one

[NoMorePie]

Yes

Growing up I was always told to follow order of operations

The internet:

Let me post a math problem incorrectly so that it can be falsely interpreted and solved incorrectly, and I'll get the algorithm on my side!
Yeah!!
That will give me the attention and fill the void in my life from not having someone to love at night.

 

[Red Money]

Order of operations. It's 12.

10-4 = 6

6 + 6 = 12.


You check parentheses then check exponents. The you go left to right.

 

[im_sleep]

It’s 12

If you put a parentheses around 2^2 + 6, then you’ll get 0

 

[Seoul Gleou]

It’s 12

If you put a parentheses around 2^2 + 6, then you’ll get 0

The parentheses is implied breh

 

[Fill Collins]

It's 12 left to right

but if you go (2^2 + 6) first, then you'd get zero, who gives a fukk?

Otherwise, Baller alert is a reputable page for math practice

 

[Wig Twistin Season]

ZERO.

Please Excuse My Dear Aunt Sally.

 

[Neuromancer]

The answer is 0 if we're using PEMDAS. Math and it's rules really suck.

Also has anyone ever encounter an exponent when counting money?

To solve the equation "10 - 2^2 + 6":

2^2 means 2 squared, which is 2 * 2 = 4.
So the equation becomes: 10 - 4 + 6
= 10 + 6 - 4
= 16 - 4
= 12[1]

Therefore, the answer to the equation "10 - 2^2 + 6" is 12.
