Topic	What does 8÷2(2+2) = ?
Rikiaz 03/21/20 2:39:11 AM #107:	kayoticdreamz posted... I haven't done algebra in years, help me out. how did the 4 change sides of the "/"? see bolded Sorry I didn't explain that part. X/2 * 4 is equal to 4 * X/2 by the Associative Property. The Associative Property states that if you have 3 numbers multiplied together, their product is the same regardless of the order. Since Division is really just Multiplication backwards it works with division too, at least in this instance. Then I forget the name of the property but a * b/c = (a * b) / c which is what I did in that step to group 4 and X together divided by 2. --- 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:935981949] in What does ...
