48÷2(9+3) = ???

[tonywonder]

basically what it comes down to is that nobody is going to write out the equation that way. if its written on a piece of paper it will be written one of the two ways we are all seeing it. and that will clarify any confusion as to how the problem should be solved.

The reciprocal of 5(1+2)/8(2+3) is 1/(5(1+2)/8(2+3))

Looks right to me.

i hate math... :(

honestly when i looked at it i couldn't get the answer... good thing i don't need math in my line of work!

Parenthesis
Exponents
Multiplication
Division
Addition
Subtraction

Multiplication/Division order can be swapped depending what comes first in the equation starting at the left side.

Addition/Subtraction order can be swapped depending on what comes first in the equation starting at the left side.

I can't believe how many people are so wrong lol

Let's just work it out and see where it goes.

Is the reciprocal of 5(1+2)/8(2+3)... 8(2+3)/5(1+2)?

The reciprocal of 5(1+2)/8(2+3) is 1/(5(1+2)/8(2+3))

That's not my equation. :tsk:

We disagree about multiplication by juxtaposition, isn't that enough?

Let's prove it.

y divided by x is the same as y multiplied by 1 / x.

So how do you rewrite our equation?

I see what you're doing there. It won't work.

I just asked for the reciprocal...not a solution.

Anyone? reciprocal of 5(1+2)/8(2+3) ?
