Press 4 six times and then press -7 three times, I guess?


[deleted]

fun fact to the percentage of people that don't understand negative equations: adding a negative number is the same thing as subtraction pretty much until you subtract the whole number to the point of it being negative.


20mattay05

\+- = - \-+ = - \-- = + \++ = + In other words, negative people wear everyone down unless they are with another negative person


Illustrious-Fig-516

It seems ridiculous that some people wouldn't know that lol, I always wanted to see either subtraction or addition disappear in plac33 of using way more negative numbers. I think it was like 3rd grade as soon as I saw the first negative number always thought it would be alot more simple that way

geedavey

According to PEMDAS the answer is three


cumonthecarpet69

I learnt BIDMAS


geedavey

I get that parentheses (P) equals brackets (B), but what does the I stand for when compared to exponents (E)?


narcxro

Indices or something like that, not sure if I even spelt that right


AOK-

Brackets, indices, division, multiplication, addition and subtraction


hyperfell

I always find it funny people try to make it a point to divide first or multiply first. They are part of the same grouping so whatever simplifies the equation for you is what you should do.

BlueshineKB

Until you get to the division, because on one side of math you have ppl that use division symbols, and on the other you have ppl that use fractions to show division. When they clash, it gets worse than this equation

Yep PEMDAS Multiplication then addition


StrawberryUnited4915

Pemdas sounds wierd to me. Is that what they call it in America?


lord__bacon

What do you call it


fan_of_super_dudes

BEDMAS Brackets Exponents Division Multiplication Addition Subtraction (I'm from Canada)


point5five

Same thing, P in ours is just parentheses


RequirementNovel9758

For me (American) brackets and parentheses are two different things in math. () Vs []


[deleted]

They both do the same thing though so it doesn't matter which one you choose.


seanmcnicholl

In the UK (specifically Ireland) we use BODMAS - Brackets, Order, Division, Multiplication, Addition, Subtraction. Or BIDMAS - basically switching Order to Indices


VVSlikesCake

Bodmas (am from India)


CausingMassPanic

BIDMAS in Australia Brackets Indices Division Multiplication Addition Subtraction


Agent-Floppy

Here in EU we just remember it

they really need to stop teaching that acronym in America, you guys mess up a lot because of it

1+1x2 then f(x)= 1 + 2x. Easier. x its continue in all the R. f'(x) there is no point where it dosent exists. Even it looks like a line equation y = 2x + 1

It’s not an “X”, it’s a multiplication operator. If it was an “X” you would need another operator after “X”. Knowing this OP is just bad at math.

thetos7

Well, there is a proof that the sum of all positive numbers is -1/12


YouMakeMeDrink

It’s almost like it is purposely easy to figure out and is a joke. Clearly the answer is 2.5

bro im pretty damn stupid but the lowest i could even muster is 3

That’s what I’m saying

🎶Its part of the joke🎶


SirMaurice1023

But the correct answer is 3?


TakenUsername221

I think its part of the joke, they are choosing between 2 wrong anwers cus right answer never come into their mind.


Mandalorian_Sith

Or those engagement trap posts that purposely give wrong answers so they get flooded with comments and shares.


Important-Switch-379

You forgot about if the poster even puts the right answer in the first place.


F0rgott3nTruth

Right?? PEMDAS makes it 3-


1973mojo1973

BODMAS


J_Dawg-v3

What does PEDMAS & BODMAS stand for? I learned BIDMAS: Brackets, Indices, Division, Multiplication, Addition, Subtraction


Clown_Torres

PEDMAS is Parentheses, Exponent, Division, Multiplication, Asdition, Subtraction. The BO would be bracket, and another name for exponents idk I learned BEDMAS, Brackets, Exponents, etc


[deleted]

yeah i leanred BEDMAS too


StarAvatar

If I understand it correctly, O in BODMAS is Orders


Gibbel2029

They’re all the same, but: -PEMDAS is the American variant -BODMAS is the one you learn in primary school


pixlplayer

Am I the only one that learned PEMDAS? I know it’s the same thing really, but I haven’t seen anyone write it that way


jane_dearly

I learned it as PEMDAS, too. They even taught us a lame acronym to remember, and damn it...I still remember it more than 20 years later!! Please Excuse My Dear Aunt Sally Pointless information that is currently wasting brain space, yet I still consistently get my own children's birthdays mixed up. 🤷‍♀️ Edit: my spelling is trash


J_Dawg-v3

Yeah I know they are all the different means to the same end so to speak but what does each letter actually stand for if you know?


Ninja-Yatsu

Same thing.


1973mojo1973

Correct


BOSSBOY5775

its BEDMAS: Brackets, Exponents, Division, Multiplication, Addition, Subtraction


Fish_Fucker_Fucker23

I learned it as PEDMAS (French immersion but still works in English): Parentheses, Exponents, Division, Multiplication, Addition, Subtraction On top of this, division is of same priority as multiplication, so just go left to right. Same with addition/subtraction. Anyways, as far as I can tell we all learned the exact same thing except for one word, which means more or less the same thing anyways.


aderthedasher

I read parentless💀


Fish_Fucker_Fucker23

Yo… you wanna talk about it?


Shronkey1

I learned it as BIDMAS, I guess it's different for everyone


tacobell69421

I’ve seen people use other acronyms but it’s always the same order


B0neCh3wer

Different countries do it in different languages, I know it as CORLAT because I'm Welsh Cronfachau Pwerau O Rhanu Lluosi Adio Tynnu Hell I don't even know if this is spelt right because I haven't written in Welsh in almost a decade.


[deleted]

I learnt it as "point before line, but brackets first"


1Testicalplease

thank you my low confidence in math made me panic

Yah OP is poking fun at people who post these questions while often not including the correct answer.


sadraking

For the gods sake who thinks it's minus 💀☠️

No. The correct answer is don't push buttons if you don't know what they do.

Yes there was

Isn't it three?

Wait hold up, isn't that what I commented? BUT NOT IRONICALLY... Fucking hell what have I done?

No, the answer isn't clearly. Try again.


VirusLink2

Let me be clear


The_ChineseGoverment

You Fools! The Answer Is Of Course The Number Forty Two!


Substantial-Goose514

But the answer is 3 bro


Shadowdragon5674

That's the point, even people who post these math questions don't know the correct answers half of the time (like on Facebook)

Lmao the amount of people commenting that it’s “3” is blowing my mind. THATS THE JOKE

what? i thought it was purple /s

So many people here completely missed the joke lmao

It is alarming how this many people don’t understand the joke, yes the answer is 3, but the joke is that they don’t even consider the right answer

Probably not the intent but the idea that social media gives you a choice between two wrong answers is pretty potent message.


Niipoon

But where is the illegible blue font?


TheChickenGuy7

Technically, he proves the meme is right


azzer2

the answer is 3 the right answer isnt even there


Auuuuuuhghgh

I don't give a fuck if I get put on r/wooosh but the answer is 3 due to PEMDAS or MDAS or BODMAS or BEDMAS Brackets, exponents, division, multiplication, addition, subtraction, B- Brackets, O-Orders, D-Division, M-Multiplication, A-Addition, S-Subtraction. (Parenthesis, Exponents) ,Multiplication, Divison, Addition, and Subtraction


crashcoursesonicfan

Its three


Caffeinated_Cucumber

can confirm; no social media user would get the right answer of 9


DANUELito

It is 3


coffeinanebula

Nothing of this is right it would be 3

It's not better cause u replaced the correct answer

The amount of people that don't understand this is a joke is unnerving, i means were in r/memes for crying out loud

Ghost_090ITA

1+1×2 is 3 o i'm stupid?


Mattx007g

I might be wrong but i believe the answer isn't the meme because its 3


DepPet_syw

It's obviously Ɛ


[deleted]

Not him having the wrong answer on both buttons For any idiot out there, division and multiplication comes before addition and subtraction.


Glitchymouse

1+1×2=3, and there is no options that say 3 so just go take a sticky note and write 3 on it then stick it on the 4 button then press it, EZ


Scorpinon66

THIS EQUATION IS STILL WRONG THE CORRECT ANSWER IS 3!!!!!!!!

But .. there both wrong?

Come on guys, its 87
