Topic	What does 8÷2(2+2) = ?
Rikiaz 03/20/20 9:52:38 PM #62:	You could always make the 8 an X and make it equal your answer to see if you got the right one, but I doubt most of CE can or would do algebra. But anyway, lets see if 16 is correct 8/2(2+2) = 16 Turn 8 into X X/2(2+2) = 16 Simplify parentheses X/24 = 16 Multiply fractions (because X/2 is a fraction) (X4)/2 = 16 Divide the numbers 4 and 2 2X = 16 Divide both by 2 X = 8 Since X = 8, 16 is correct. --- From the depths, the thing they called Worm King did rise. Nirn itself did scream in the Mages' and Necromancers' war. <cite>Rikiaz posted [p:935972108] in What does ...
