MathIsAlwaysRight

real zephyr
#

pretty sure the second one is equal to (4+3)/4 so 7/4 then flip the fraction

real zephyr
#

fixed it

sage charm
#

In that context

#

But I get what u mean

#

4+3/4=4.75 while (4+3)/4=1.75

sage charm
#

4+3/4 is always 7/4 and is always equal to (4+3)/4

#

Um <@&286206848099549185>

#

I’m correct, right?

#

I ain’t tripping

#

It can’t not be the same

#

Because if u apply the “v” rule I like to call it

#

U do 4/4 + 3/4 which is 1.75

#

Using the V rule

#

Which is the same as 7/4

guys

#

pemdas is dumb

#

If someone gives you an equation with no parentheses give it back to them and ask them to do better

This isn’t a rant channel

to evaluate polynomial, x^3+3x^2-6 at x=4, you would have to type 4^3+(3*(4)^2)-6

#

and Im not even sure if that awful expression is correct

sage charm
#

You’re insane

#

So crazy

#

Tell me where the working is questionable

#

I’d appreciate it

merry oar
#

Type that in calc

Why did little bro delete his post

It automatically adds parenthesis

#

and when you do (4+3)/4 you get 1.75

#

exactly as I said

#

it matters

sage charm
#

THOUGHT U MEANT THE WHOLE OF 4+3 WAS NUMERATOR

#

SO THAT OBVS WOULDNT CHANGE ANYTHING

When you add fractions they need to have a common denominator. You are trying to add 4 and 3/4, but the denominator of 4 is 1 (4/1=4) and the denominator of 3/4 is 4. So when you just add them like that to get 7/4 it is incorrect. You can easily make them have common denominators, as 4 can be wrote as 16/4. Now they share a common denominator of 4. 16/4+3/4 = 19/4. From this you can simplify, to 4.75.
