Can you solve this tricky math problem using nothing but regular school math?
In today’s task, of course, we will only include two of these, but that doesn’t make it any less tricky!
ANSWER:
You have to first, as I said, figure out the order of operations.
Should you just solve everything from left to right?
Well, no. Not really.
You must solve the multiplication before the addition.
Now, on the other hand, after solving that part – you can solve the rest from left to right.
14 – 3 x 2 – 5 = ?
14 – 6 – 5 = ?
In conclusion, it becomes very simple – and now I think you know the answer!
Below you can see the solution!
14 – 3 x 2 – 5 = ?
14 – 6 – 5 = ?
8 – 5= 3
The answer is 3
