So you do not know spelling? ODER
and you do not know simple math?
No - you always work math from right to left
so 8-10 = -2
-2+2 = 0
0 divided by 1 is still 0
0 multiplied by 100 is still 0
so the answer is ZEROLOG IN TO THANK No one has yet thanked zz000ter for this post.

it should be = 0 divided by 2 is still 0

Wow, this is sad. It seems you have neither athletic ability or intellect going for you, even though you were bragging about the latter in that other thread. :(
OP, I don't like "÷" notation since it can go both ways. It could be 100 x 2 / (2 + 10 - 8) or 100 x 2/2 + 10 - 8. If it's the latter, then the answer is 102.LOG IN TO THANK No one has yet thanked Oscillator for this post.

lol at the trolls and lol at this question.. 100x2/2+10-8 = 102
-8+10x2/2+100 = 102
10+100x2/2-8 = 102
its easier since x2/2 cancel out lol

[B]B[/B]rackets
[B]E[/B]xponents
[B]D[/B]ivision
[B]M[/B]ultiplication
[B]A[/B]ddition
[B]S[/B]ubtraction
Lets try this out:
100 x 2 ÷ 2 + 10 - 8 (problem)
100 x 1 + 10 - 8 (divided 2 by 2 = 1)
100 + 10 - 8 (multiplied 100 by 1 = 100)
110 - 8 (add 10 to 100 = 110)
= [B]102[/B] (100 subtract 8)
Another way to see it is to bracket everything that is either multiplied or divided (which I do to make things easier to see)
(100 x 2 / 2) + 10 - 8 = 102
Edit: I feel like I'm getting trolled here...
Edit 2: If there's no bracket in the problem, then assume there's no bracket. There's only one possible answer here.Last edited by windforcexx28; Mar 21st, 2012 at 12:16 PM.

You are all wrong.
It is:
100 x 2 / 2 + 10 - 2
So multiplication first:
200 divided by 2 + 10
16.6666666666666666666666666666667 - 8
Equals

We have had math problems on here before and they go on forever without end. As another poster suggested it depends on if you mean 100 x 2 / (2 + 10 - 8) or 100 x 2/2 + 10 - 8.
[URL="http://lmgtfy.com/?q=100+x+2+%C3%B7+2+%2B+10+-+8"]Assuming you meant it exactly as you wrote it[/URL]_______________
My opinions may have changed, but not the fact that I am right.
