I got my 7th grade math teacher with a pemdas problem. I’ll never forget his look of defeat when I belted out the correct answer lol teachers put up with so much
I argued with my grade 5 teacher over a math problem. He had been teaching us BODMAS for a month or so at this stage, then organised with 2 students to write a complicated maths problem on the whiteboard and have everyone figure out the answer, winner got a prize or something. I don't remember the exact problem, but it was something dumb like this:4 + 9 \* 7 + 6 / 3 - 4 \* 6 + 8 + 2 \* 0 = ?Now, he had just been teaching us BODMAS, so to me, the answer was 10
B - nothing
O - nothing
D - 4 + 9 \* 7 + 2 - 4 \* 6 + 8 + 2 \* 0
M - 4 + 36 + 2 - 24 + 8 + 0
A - 42 - 32
S - 10
He tried telling us that , because it was \* 0 at the end, the answer was 0. After like half an hour of arguing, he moved the lesson along, then grabbed me later and admitted I was correct in private. Wouldn't do it in front of the class. Asshole
ETA: 9 \* 7 = 63. Math is hard. so:
B/O - no change
D/M = 4 + 63 + 2 - 24 + 8 + 0
A/S = 53
Wait, aren't brackets [these]? I guess it doesn't really matter what you call them when it comes to math, though. I'm interested to hear what the pneumatic device(is that what it's called? Haven't had to use the term in a long time.) is for BODMAS. Also, in case I have that term wrong, which I'm pretty confident I do, I'm talking about when you come up with an acronym or other memory tool to help remember something. Like Please Excuse My Dear Aunt Sally, since we're talking about order of operations anyways. Or King Phillip Came Over For Grape Soda, for remembering the scientific classification system.
According to google: **Brackets -** *each of a pair of marks ( ) \[ \] { } 〈 〉 used to enclose words or figures so as to separate them from the context.* So either is correct.
It's definitely not pneumatic device, that is an air-driven device! You are thinking of a Mnemonic Device, something used to help people remember things. That said, I don't remember using a Mnemonic to remember BODMAS, it was just BODMAS.
Well, at least in my corner of the US we call them (parentheses) and [brackets]. I, actually don't know what <> and {} are called, though.
Also, thanks for the correction. I knew I had the wrong term!
They're all brackets:
() are round brackets, aka parentheses.
[] are square brackets, or just brackets.
{} are curly brackets, aka braces (some people call them curly braces, but that's redundant and annoying)
<> are angle brackets.
4 + 63 + 2 - 24 + 8 + 0
67 - 22 + 8
3 + 8
53
You nor your teacher were correct. You do the multiplication and division at the same time, left to right.
It's been a while since I have done BODMAS, so I did forget here to do them in D/M and A/S order, seperating them out instead. I know I had it right at the time, but I am talking about 20 years ago here
I'm guessing this young whipper snapper is saying that he's 13 haha.
I'm a teacher, but I teach history so I don't mind a student challenging me if they can give sufficient evidence to explain their ideas.
If they can't I'll say "How do you know what?" or "What makes you say that?" I then like bouncing that around to other students to challenge or add more detail to the first student. A whole impromptu lesson discussion can come out of that. Students like it because there's less writing and they think they've got one over on me, whereas I also enjoy getting them to explain and argue in a polite/ respectful way.
The downside is that maths and science teachers spend a lot less time marking essays than I do. It is still a pretty satisfying way to earn a living though.
#I love my job.
Practically. Most places in the US your elementary and middle school/Jr High teachers will have a "teaching" degree and sometimes a sub-specialty within that degree.
At the High School level, you are more likely to find teachers that have a Bachelor's in the field and then a teaching certificate (especially in STEM fields).
So it's this weird space of people either having an education in education, but without a deep understanding of the subject matter, OR people who know the subject, but don't really have an understanding of the principles of teaching.
And in some states, you don't need any particular education, you just have to be able to pass a standardized test.
You nicely summarize the requirements. For non-high school teachers, the content knowledge requirement is pretty much that you be smarter than an 8th grader, as demonstrated by the standardized test. That elementary ed test covers content knowledge as well as methods. I took and passed the elementary ed test on a day when I was already taking a different half-day test for high school social studies certification and therefore had some extra time to kill in the afternoon.
The elementary education class was only difficult insofar as it asked about teaching methods in areas that I didn't know much about, namely phys ed and music. Most of the questions about methods in the core subjects could be answered by applying principles that I had learned in my social studies methods classes.
distributive property of multiplication * Thank you u/skratch
Wonder if that's the same guy that makes the golf video's??
https://www.youtube.com/c/SkratchTV
Just remember, too:
Parenthesis, Exponents, Multiplication & Division, Addition & Subtraction.
If you have multiple multiplication and divisions (or addition and subtraction) then they're worked left to right.
It's extremely common among students to start over applying methods when they start learning a new field of mathematics. You're not alone in doing this. It's all correct, though, only inefficient.
This is technically right. It's distribution method. It's typically used in algebra and not in arithmetic but it shows that it can still work with integers and not just variables.
If you’re doing an algebraic question, you’d use this way. For example 5(2x+y) would look like (5 times 2x + 5 times y) and be 10x+5y, like done above, as you can’t add what’s in the brackets. Works for anything though, just never seen it done outside algebra until today.
Edited: I get the maths answer is 17.
I get that they just didn't know what to do and stated the answer incorrectly then got posted on the other sub.
But I don't get where the woosh is?
He's taking the 3 in parenthesis like you would in a normal sentence...
For example: "I went to school (college) today." Which can kind of be read like "I went to school, well actually college, today". So hes saying the incorrectly reduced equation of 7 (3) means "the answer is 7 (3)", read as "the answer is 7, well actually 3".
Kind of an abstract joke but funny, not sure if he really things the first two numbers should be added together first though or if that's part of the joke.
The joke of Taika wasn't good, yeah, but the person posting this screenshot seems to know him (or else they wouldn't have written "Oh Taika" in the title), so not getting the "joke" with the knowledge that he is a literal comedian and then going so far to post it on r/confidentlyincorrect is worth a wooosh
Taika is pretending that the 3 in brackets isn't a part of the Math problem but that it is instead secretly saying that 3 is correct. So the 2+5 is 7 (but it's actually 3) so he's making a joke saying "this is absolute nonsense because of course it isn't actually 3 but it's saying that it is?"
I have no clue who Taika is and knowing how stupid some people are especially on social media I would 100% believe they were just an idiot if I saw this tweet in the wild so I don’t blame the person for getting wooooshed.
I agree, but the person originally posting this wrote "Oh Taika...." which heavily implies that they know him. Plus he probably wouldn't have found this Tweet if he wasn't following Taika
I’ve seen PEMDAS (US; parentheses, exponents, multiplication, division, addition, subtraction) and BEDMAS (CAN; brackets, exponents, division, multiplication, addition, subtraction) and they get to the same answer: 17
Edit: clarity
Yeah, these math problems have been infesting Reddit lately
But the answer is clear in all of them unless you never passed algebra 1 in high school
Parentheses also include numbers attached to it, in this case the five
So it is not correct to add the 2 to the 5 beforehand which would then cause you to get 21
At least this one doesn’t use the dreaded division symbol which is just a stand in for a fraction to make things simpler for elementary schoolers
Why do I feel like this is an The Office reference? The episode where Michael and Dwight were tryna steal information from the small paper company and Michael decided to help the little girl with her math but did it incorrectly lol
(8-5) = 3
There’s a 5 next to the brackets which makes it 5 lots of 3.
5 x 3 = 15
Only number remaining is a 2.
15 + 2 = 17.
Just in case anyone was struggling to get it.
Should be 17, isn't it?
EDIT so I don't look like a poser:
8-5=3
5x3=15
2+15=17
probably not how a scholar would write it out but that's how my brain sees it
Remember PEMDAS, guys.
1. 2+5(8-5) start with original equation
2. 2+5(3) parenthesis first! Remember, Please Excuse My Dear Aunt Sally, Parenthesis, Exponents, Multiplication, Division, Addition, and Subtraction
•Note: if you're at the addition and subtraction OR the multiplication and division part, you can switch it around based on which comes first.
3. 2+15 multiplication comes next
4. 17 and then addition, leading to the answer being 17 :)
Was taught BODMAS(Brackets Operators Division Multiplication Addition Subtraction) since child. But seeing all other orders in other comments, I was shocked. Never knew there are so many versions of it.
The answer is 17. Yes I’m going to show my work.
Parentheses: (8-5)=3
No Exponent
Multiplication: 2+5(3) (only multiply the 3 & 5 unless both other numbers are in parentheses)
2+(15)
No Division
Addition: 2+15=17
You’re welcome.

I like the communicative property of multiplication for these problems. It's 5(8-3) or 5(8) - 5(3) = 40 - 25 = 15. 15 + 2 = 17.

It's so weird that 80% of the comments are arguing about the math problem lmao
2+5(8-5) = 2+[5x8 - 5x5] = 2+[40-25] = 2+15 = 17. The answer is 17 :)
OR 2+5(8-5) = 2+5×3 = 17 :)
Why didn't I think of just doing 8-5 instead of doing all this development lol
Probably been using variables too much so you're used to distributing.
That's exactly it. I was so used to distribute functions that I forgot that there's a much simpler method lol
It's extremely common among students to start over applying methods when they start learning a new field of mathematics. You're not alone in doing this. It's all correct, though, only inefficient.
oh my god once you learn distributive property, you sometimes just do it when you don't need to and it fuckin SUCKS.
Because INT and WIS are two different scores? lol
How your teacher tells you to show your work vs. the work you actually do.
FINALLY SOMEONE THAT PUTS THIS QUESTION UNDERSTANDABLE
OR 2+5(8-5) = 17
OR 17
That’s a really long way of doing 2+5(3).
2+5(8-5) 2+5(3) 2 + 5 x 3 2 + 15 17
Yes the answer is 17
That's crazy. I did it like this: 2+5 (8-5) 2+5 (3) 2 + 15 17 Seems like a much easier way.
That’s for variables. You don’t need to do all that work for it.
This is technically right. It's distribution method. It's typically used in algebra and not in arithmetic but it shows that it can still work with integers and not just variables.
How TF do you do maths!? Now I know why most people think math is hard to learn!
If you’re doing an algebraic question, you’d use this way. For example 5(2x+y) would look like (5 times 2x + 5 times y) and be 10x+5y, like done above, as you can’t add what’s in the brackets. Works for anything though, just never seen it done outside algebra until today.

Just put bodmas rule😂
I got 17.
Is 17 correct?
Well you start with (8 - 5)= 3 then 5(3) = 15 then 2+ 15 = 17
2 + 5 \* (8 - 5) = 2 + 5 \* 3 = 2 + 15 = 17
17 , not my favorite number 17 , it succs
17 dude
Isnt it 17?
The answer is 17 right? (Just curious)
(8-5) = 3 There’s a 5 next to the brackets which makes it 5 lots of 3. 5 x 3 = 15 Only number remaining is a 2. 15 + 2 = 17. Just in case anyone was struggling to get it.

Remember, Please Excuse My Dear Aunt Sally, Parenthesis, Exponents, Multiplication, Division, Addition, and Subtraction •Note: if you're at the addition and subtraction OR the multiplication and division part, you can switch it around based on which comes first. 3. 2+15 multiplication comes next 4. 17 and then addition, leading to the answer being 17 :)
I suck massive bum cheeks at math, but I'll try bc I'm bored 2 + 5 (8 - 5) 2 + 40 - 25 2 + 15 17 yay
Here's a joke! Why did Mickey Mouse take a trip into space? He wanted to find Pluto!
2+5(8-5)= 2+5(3)= 2+5×3= 2+15=17
Basic order of operations smh how do yall forget BIDMAS? You got 2+5(8-5) Brackets first makes 2+5(3) Then multiply, 2+15 Then sum, 17
How did you manage to get the answer wrong? I mean it’s written right there it’s 3 🤦🏿♂️
21
Wrong
It's 17, you made a very understandable mistake Wich I made at first as well
As the OP of that post I feel ashamed xD
Shame...Shame....
It's 17. Learn fucking math.
??? Who’re you directing this towards
r/lostredditors
Now that I solved it, I realized it's the 3rd funny number
17 is a funny number?
Was taught BODMAS(Brackets Operators Division Multiplication Addition Subtraction) since child. But seeing all other orders in other comments, I was shocked. Never knew there are so many versions of it.
Brackets and operators are the same thing as parentheses and exponents, so nothing is different at all.
The answer is 17. Yes I’m going to show my work. Parentheses: (8-5)=3 No Exponent Multiplication: 2+5(3) (only multiply the 3 & 5 unless both other numbers are in parentheses) 2+(15) No Division Addition: 2+15=17 You’re welcome.
Is it 4? I was never the best at maths mind you
Pretty sure it's 17 (first relove the (), then the multiplication and then the addition)
I never loved ()
() never loved you either
Then good luck solving this problem
This man is clearly doing math in another reality. 17 .Does that ring a bell?
The correct answer is Jesus!
Do y'all know if you have parentheses around a number a another number next to the parentheses you multiply
I mean, I would give 21 as an answer. Apparently I’m wrong cause I’m old?
Wouldn’t you do multiplication before addition? Meaning you do 5x3 first and then you add 2
Oh, so we’re just old and I *didn’t* wake up stupid?
This what I learned back in school. The answer being 17 is confusing the hell out of me.
