CWed for length. "Viral Math Problem?"
So, I tend to watch Youtube before I go to sleep and I often watch various videos on STEM topics. I also (As you can see) am a fan of gaming videos.
However, that's not the point here.
In what fucking world is 6/2(1+2) a VIRAL math problem? That's *simple fucking math*. Did no one learn the order of operations? Am I stupid here? We got the 1+2=3, 6/2=3, 3*3=9. Nine. The answer is Nine.
I had to watch it to make sure I wasn't stroking out. That there wasn't some deeper aspect to the question.
There is. Apparently the order of operations and current convention on math has changed since 1917. However, the crux of it seems that some people just don't understand how equations are formatted in modern mathematics.
