scottie.harris Posted April 13, 2011 Report Share Posted April 13, 2011 tyler524- your a moron for thinking that m and d have the same weight. for example 6/3*4. 6/3=2 2*4=86*3=18 18/4=4.53*4=12 6/12= .5how you figure??? i completed high school, how bout you?

I bought a 7 year old house at 19 a brand new truck at 21 and started college at 16 and no my parents haven't paid for shit. Division is just the multiplication of a reciprocal, that is how they are the same weight. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
scottie.harris Posted April 13, 2011 Report Share Posted April 13, 2011 yet i proved it mathmatically. that works as a fraction, NOT a division. use the actual division symbol not the fraction symbol. my girlfriend took accounting and she even learned that there is a difference between the fraction and division symbol and it would be marked wrong on a test. congrats on being a success at a young age, but your not right about everything. so your saying that the goodyear engineer is a "huge dumbass" to be where he is as well?

tyler524 Posted April 13, 2011 Report Share Posted April 13, 2011 ...and on MY side of the argument, that is why I stopped as well agreed that 288 is the correct answer. that 288 is the answer that we have all decided upon Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Steve Butters Posted April 13, 2011 Report Share Posted April 13, 2011 tyler524- your a moron for thinking that m and d have the same weight. omg....youre so fucking stupid and youre too oblivious to realize it....this shit is awesome...i love this thread2 or 288 idgaf anymore, scottie is wrong no matter what the answer is m and d have the same weight....i think you need to hop on the special bus and take a refresher course at your local middle school bubbyhttp://www.purplemath.com/modules/orderops.htmhttp://www.mathsisfun.com/operation-order-pemdas.htmlhttp://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Order_of_operationshttp://www.studygs.net/pemdas/those all say youre wrong. and those were just the top 4 hits in google your example: 6/3*4 ... 6/3 = 2 *4 = 8....according to you, the answer is .5 because 6/(3*4) is .5....but without those parenthesis, its 8type that into ANY calculator and you will get 8furthermore - PEMDAS is just an acronym...you know another acronym for order of operations?BEDMASBrackets, Exponents, Division, Multiplication, Addition, Subtractionhttp://mathcentral.uregina.ca/QQ/database/QQ.09.07/h/brit1.htmlhttp://www.onlinemathlearning.com/bedmas.htmlhttp://www.mathsisfun.com/operation-order-bodmas.htmlhttp://www.youtube.com/watch?v=P4Xa62buiJIso, will you PLEASE shut the fuck up and stop calling people out with wrong information 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ReconRat Posted April 13, 2011 Report Share Posted April 13, 2011 (edited) Last try...Algebraically a(b+c) => (ab + ac). This has to be true, it's a basic principle of algebra. Without it, everything changes. Let's prove it.Prove: here is an implicit set of brackets 2(9+3) => (2 x ( 9 + 3 )) Assumed: Calculators and programming languages can't see the solution without the implied implicit set of brackets and will not interpret it correctly. They need help.Use the calculator for proof of it's own results:A reverse proof to solve for unknown will demonstrate this.48÷y(9+3)=2 or 48÷y(9+3)=288Substituting y for the implicit multiplicand, y will equal 2 for whichever answer is correct, the 2 or the 288Neither of these give the correct answer, both are false.The calculator can't prove it. Or the calculator proves the calculator can't do it.Try again with the implied:48÷(y(9+3))=2 or 48÷(y(9+3))=288one of these is true, and the other is falseRepeat the proof using (9y+3y) instead of y(9+3):The same results for all four cases.The correct expression tree is:..(/) ../ \48 (*) ...../ \ ....2 (+) ......./ \ .......9 3Done. This cannot be disproved without errors in the rebuttal or warping Space/Time...In case you're wondering... 48/2(9+3) instead of 48÷y(9+3) will totally fail with most calculators. Only a pencil and/or knowledge will solve that reliably.edit: and here's hoping I didn't make a mistake... durrr Edited April 13, 2011 by ReconRat Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
attentiongetter92 Posted April 13, 2011 Report Share Posted April 13, 2011 I asked my college math professor today. She said that there isn't enough info given. That the Problem could be 48/2(9+3) with the 9+3 being grouped with the 2 which will give you too. Or if the 9+3 is separate its 288 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
NinjaNick Posted April 13, 2011 Report Share Posted April 13, 2011 There isn't really. Both answers could be, because it's one of those problems with a loophole. If you search it on google websites you'll find that it is used for trolling and to start confrontations. It was a fun time, but it's worn out already in just 2 days.
