35/42 today. Quite pleased with myself. quiz
30/42. better than my recent horrible showings
20/50, about average for me :/
Also to be fair! I did the math! I just did it in the wrong order and got 24
I had to remember the order of operations, managed the correct answer after a shameful number of minutes 😬 BEDMAS helps
I really hate that that’s even a thing. Logically, my brain wants to do it in the order that it’s shown in. Doing it any other way just feels unnatural. Like building a roof before building the house
Helps to isolate the problem by putting brackets round anything that you KNOW needs to be done separately.
Doesn’t help much if I don’t KNOW what needs to be done separately.
PEMDAS
parenthesis, exponents, multiplication, division, addition, subtraction.
That’s how I remember it.
