My thought process: if I had 8÷(4+4) = 1 and factored out a 2, I get 8÷2(2+2) = 1. However, if I say 2(2+2) = 2*(2+2), then 8÷2(2+2) = 8÷2*(2+2) = 1, BUT 8÷2*(2+2) = 16.
Please help I’m feeling dumber by the second
In: Mathematics
Use the method called BODMAS, the mathematical equations are solved in this manner.
Brackets >Of >Division >Multiplication >Addition >Subtraction
Brackets- (2+2) = (4)
Of- 2(4) = 8
Division – 8÷8 = 1
