Perascamin 07/31/19 6:24:35 AM #46:	Okay so I remember learning in Algebra that if you have a problem like what is written in the op, you always multiply the numbers of what's inside the parenthesis by what's outside the parenthesis. I've had to argue with my math teacher that "shouldn't you have to do it left to right just like you read?" After parenthesis of course, before and she told me I was wrong. She pretty much had to beat into all of us in sophomore year that the way to do a problem like op was: 8 2(2+2) 2(2+2) > 2x2 = 4, 2x2 = 4 8(4+4) > 4+4 = 8 88 = 1 And from some of the people in this topic, they learned that way too. Is there a different theoretical formula where that is the case or something? --- I've grown. <cite>Perascamin posted [p:925420256] in 8/2(2+2) =...

I do not understand why people cannot grasp this, over and over but 8/(2(2+2)) = 1 which is what other people are solving <cite>Fam_Fam posted [p:925420596] in 8/2(2+2) =...

Tsuyoi3 07/31/19 7:03:59 AM #48:	Before looking, its 1 right? What's in parentheses comes first, becoming 4, then multiply by the 2 outside. Finally divide! Am I right?
