Feel free to put work down below.​

 

depends what to divide, the 2 or the 2(3)?

 

That's up to you.

 

according to pemdas
we work it left to right
6*6=36
36/2=18
18*3=54
54+4=58

 

blender says 10

wait damnit

 

then they multiply first
i think you should go left to right

 

ummm

 

10
Feel free to call me stupid all you want

 

You're right, but only if you count the 3 as being parentheses and thus doing 2x3 before dividing 36. In other words, it'd be 36/6 + 4 which is 6 + 4 or 10.

Since my memory on PEMDAS isn't all that great, I can't be sure, but I'm pretty sure 2(3) just counts as multiplication, so you'd do 36/2 and then triple it, which is 54. +4 means 58.

@Thunder does this actually have an answer or what

 

Its 10. PEMDAS
6^6 = 36 / 6 + 4
6+4
You always go down the Letters
P = Parenthesis
E = Exponent
M = Multiplication
D = Division
A = Addition
S = Subtraction

 

PE(MD)(AS)
6^2÷2(3)+4
36÷2(3)+4
Division comes up first so
18(3)+4
54+4
58

 

Isn't PEMDAS wrong though? I thought Minute Physics disproved it

 

Tbh I read
(0^2/2(3)+4

 

I'm pretty sure multiplying goes before dividing, so the answear is 10 I guess.

 

If its how mathematics was suppost to be, then PEMDAS should be right

 

In the case of PEMDAS or PEDMAS, when faced with multiplication or division, you do them in the order that they appear. So, you would do the division first. So,

6^2 / 2(3) + 4

36 / 2(3) + 4

18(3) + 4

54 + 4

58

 

Its 58 since you are supposed to do division first instead of multiplication

 

the space is trying to mess with you, but the 2(3) just means 2*3, so
6²/2(3)+4

parenthesis are already simplified, so simplify exponents
36/2*3+4

multiply/divide left to right
18*3+4

repeat
54+4

finally, addition/subtraction, left to right
58

you would only do 2*3 if they were both in parenthesis (2*3) but they aren't.

 

58
if you want to to do (6^2)/(2*3)+4 you should look at the problem the equation comes from amd see if the equation is fitting

 

The math problem is incomplete. 2(3) could be a term on it's own, or 2 could be divided first. You left out vital parentheses that specify the order of operations.
