Another one of these questions. If you can't get this right I don't know what to say.

I face palm when I saw how many people got this wrong. This is basic arithmetic... The stuff you learn in the 3rd grade. As a 7th grader taking Honors algebra 3/4 (Pre-Cal next year) I'm just Baffled by the stupidity of some MCSG-ers. Meh, the Math_Magician has spoken. All your math ailments are healed.

I've seen this kind of question before on another forum a while back, and almost 50% of the people there put the wrong answer.

How...

Our community seems fairly smart, 25/28 getting the right answer is fairly good, considering I've seen some on facebook with close to 50/50

Those three forgot bedmas ~_~
I was taught it like PEMDAS. Also known as, Please Excuse My Dear Aunt Sally.

You can use BEDMAS, but there are no brackets, so I just stick to PEMDAS for most of these problems. :D
