This is setting the net on fire. I don’t much care, myself, but it is mildly interesting.

The only thing I can see is the division sign could be mistaken for a plus sign. Is it because the teacher is wounded and in body armor. I don’t get it. I get 16.

It’s an order-of-events controversy. Do you divide 8 by 2 first, then multiply by (2 + 2) or do you multiply 2(2 +2) first? I go along with the second choice so my answer is 1 but I don’t really care.

This was in my news feed. It was interesting to understand math problems and rewarding to expand my much needed grammar.
