[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Math teacher here. Yes, the answer is 20. Multiplication and division are done from left to right (neither is done before the other). Addition and subtraction are done from left to right (neither is done before the other). We teach that along with the acronym!![/quote] Thank you, math teacher. I was beginning to despair for the human race. How will we ever build another building or a nuclear bomb or send a spacecraft to the moon without a planet of properly trained PEMDAS people. (Well, maybe we could afford to skip the nuclear bomb....) I am glad PEMDAS will not die with the pencil. [/quote]
