Simple math equation. Am I retarded or do people really not understand pemdas Mathmatically, it's 10. Moronically, you can get all kinds of dumbass answers.
There you have it. The mighty OT is smarter than scientific calculators

Why did you divide before multiplying?
When you have multiplication and division in the same problem they are considered on the same level and you work left to right.

You would have to write it as
6^2/(2*3+4) in order to get 3.6 Mick
Mick you aren't a dumbass. 3.6 people are smart but they are just seeing the equation differently. People saying 10 are straight up not very smart

OT ballers pay people to do their math.

Ah gotcha.
I think the old fricks don't know about writing problems so computers can read it. We're all thinking the 2*3+4 is all part of the divisor and you'd get 3.6.

Yeh like I said I won't call 3.6 people dumb. They are simply looking at the written equation a little differently. However people saying 10 have no clue about math rules

Wolfram Alpha agrees with your answer.
But yes, you are retarded for writing an equation that horrible.

If the 2*3 was the divisor and the +4 was not then you'd get 10

And assuming that is always wrong. They are doing multiplication over division simply because the *3 is written as (3). They are bumblefricked with the parenthesis

It is insane but I see how people are getting the 3 answers. They think since the 3 is in ( ) it must be part of the divisor
the old fricks would need the ( ) to be as tall as the top of the dividend and on the side of the division part in order to see the problem as written

i'd be embarrassed to say 58 is the answer
it's 10

The 10 camp is the special ed program of this thread.

They're pretty stubborn, but I think it's pretty obvious to see where the 10 comes from. The OP is an obvious troll, especially by the way he put spaces before and after the forward slash.
