Facebook Math Problems?

I blame phone screen for not seeing items on top of each other.....


73

That is:-

3+5x(7+7) = 3+5x14 = 3+70 =73

I'm on a laptop and didn't notice the two brooms, two stars or empty-handed witches to start with! I can't even blame that I'm using a phone.

Stop trying to make "math" happen. In ainm dé...

quickbeam

Yes, that's why I multiplied 7 by 2.

Is the answer a red question mark?

What brooms?

I see it now

I won't lie. I looked up the answer on YouTube lol.
I get it but the actual math question is a little confusing.

You could read it as broom (3) + wizard (5) = 15 then multiply that (15) by two wands (14) and that would be 210.

Don't get me wrong I enjoy it it's just a little tricky even with the two wands and brooms which are drawn very subtle. Lol.

3+(5X14)=73
The first answer after 3 mins by Stu !

Fundamental rule in maths - multiple and divide before you add and subtract

You are multiplying the 3 and 5 and it’s a plus sign between them. So if that’s what’s on YouTube, I really need to go to spec savers again when it opens - phone or not !!!

6÷2(1+2) = ?

answer it

apparently 9 out of 10 people get this wrong. Do you know the answer?

There are 4 brooms in that line, look closer.

Probably not. The image is highly pixelated and low resolution so would give that appearance.

I would imagine this is designed to be solved while looking at a reasonably quality image.

Can the OP provide one please?

Yeah that was my point 443 pixels wide. I wish the OP would post the original image.

1 surely.

That could be rewritten as 6/2(1+2)

Feisar

They are all the same.

There is a catch if you don’t look closely enough and then it catches out those that don’t know one is supposed to multiply and divide before adding and subtracting.

So basically they tell you two things, those that were drunk doing them or those that shouldn’t be allowed vote.

Assuming it's 2 multiplied by what's in the brackets, yes.

Bones (of) my dear Aunt Sally, I believe was the phrase that pays?

Brackets
Multiplication
Division
Aaddition
Substraction

The middle bit would need to be 54 in order to get 9.

I could still clearly tell, probably 'yes' so.

People knew it was a low quality image, there was no need for Gil Grissom or Buzz Killington on the case.

but multiplication and division have the same precedence, and then addition and subtraction...

with the aid of my inference engine

3x+3y+3z = 45
3y=21 y= 7
3z=12 z = 4

y+x*z = 7+(4*4) = 25

These things really get my goat - who says the miniature versions of these objects are the same value as the large ones???

In the OP a full size wand is 7, but it doesn’t follow that a tiny wand is also 7. Ditto the brooms, which actually look more like sporks.

The correct answer to pretty much all of those “puzzles” is that they can’t be answered, there’s insufficient information.
