    288, sa middle earth –1.17

    kung tama ang 2, tama din ito:

    a = b
    ab = b^2
    ab – a^2 = b^2 – a^2
    a (b – a) = (b + a)(b – a)
    a = b + a
    a = a + a
    1 = 2

    mathematicians themselves are to blame for this mess ... when they introduced the concept of 'coeffcients'!



    ganito lang yan eh

    48÷2(9+3) =

    48÷212 = 0.226415

    tapos!

    yung may reklamo, sa barangay pumunta

    a = b
    ab = b^2
    ab – a^2 = b^2 – a^2
    a (b – a) = (b + a)(b – a) <<<< Ayos sana bro,- but you cannot divide by a zero...
    a = b + a <<<< The rest are flawed
    a = a + a
    1 = 2
    Great presentation!

    The problem is, we see it and immediately assign it as thus:

    48
    2(9+3)

    where we should also consider:

    48÷2(9+3) is the same as 48 ÷ 2 x (9+3).

    Problems, problems.

    Teka teka... antahimik ng engineers dito... Paging Ghosthunter...

    but if you read it in layman term this where the issue come in

    48÷2(9+3) forty eight divided by two (duhhh).. then stop
    while
    48 ÷ 2 x (9+3). forthy eight divided by two times

    algebraic rule states that...

    ...solve the numbers enclosed in parenthesis first then apply the MDAS rule.

    answer should be 2

    i think the equation is incomplete.. it should have been:

    48/(2(9+3)) = 2
    (48/2)(9+3) = 288

    yan para walang gulo.

    Let V=?, W=48, X=2, Y=9, Z=3

    Solve for V

    V = W÷X(Y+Z)

    V = (W÷X)Y + (W÷X)Z

    V = (48÷2)9 + (48÷2)3

    V = 216 + 72

    V = 288


    in Algebra we have to follow the rule.. "Distributive Property"

    Alangan mo naman magkamali ang calculator diba.
    Pre ang calculator gagawin lang niyan ang computation base sa pindot mo pero kailangan mo parin mag-isip bago ka pumindot sa calcu. Apply the principles ika nga kaso yung principles din ang confusing kaya tayo confused.

    My answer is 288.
    MDAS or DMAS it doesn't matter.

    The answer is 288. It's basic math elementary pa lang itinuro na sa atin. MDAS or DMAS it doesn't matter.
    numbers enclosed in the parenthesis should be solved first, then apply your MDAS

    ok, what's the next equation problem...

    ang question e: 48/2(9+3) which is equal to 2

    and not: (48/2)(9+3) which is equal to 288

    i therefor conclude, as ive concluded in page 1, that 2(9+3) is considered as one expression. as such should be simplified and used as a divisor of 48. otherwise may parenthesis sana ung (48/2) for it to be considered as a different and separate expression.

    grabe page 7 na to ah. page one palang na solve na to e! haha

    lols, marami kasi hindi makapaniwala or ayaw maniwala na mali sila. MDAS rule is there for a reason. The correct answer is 2. marami naring nagexplain kung bakit 2 ang sagot. haaayayay. :P next equations and problem na ) hahahha

    update: dahil sa madami explanation medyo naguluhan ako pero i still stood by my answer na 2.

    48/2(9+3)
    48/2(12)
    dito na nagkakagulo )

    pero sakin dahil may parenthesis at hindi x ang ginamit
    you distribute 2 to 12

    kaya

    48/24

    =

    2!

    ^ yun nga sir problema ... kapag MDAS gamitin, dapat daw 288 ang sagot
