90% Fail to Answer This Correctly!
So now I will treat you to a math problem designed for school students. But it’s not that simple for those who graduated decades ago. It’s easy to forget the order of operations as we grow older.

The question now: Can you solve this equation? Time to use that head of yours. Yeah, it’s not that simple, but as I said, not even 50% get it right at first.

Now to the brainteaser – can you figure out the answer? Try to think back on the mathematical rules!

A

B

C

ANSWER:

Below, we’ll show you the answer.

You get this if you see that the ones at the end of each row have no sign between them and the next one.

Therefore, they are actually 22s.

The “2 x 0” on the last line becomes 0. Multiplication must always be solved before addition if there are no parentheses.

2+2+2+2+22+2+2+2+22+2×0+2=60.
