32 u fucking nigger.

32 you cucks.
2 squared is 4.
Now according to order of operations math and division happen in the order they appear. So you have 200 by 25 times 4. Which is 8 times 4 Which is 32. I voted trump.

>>720755503

you proved that with your answer.

it's 2, 200 divided by 100 is two, so two is the answer to op's question.

The rule of PEMDAS dictates multiplication before division .. therefore the answer is indeed 2

you dumb faggots need to learn PEMDAS.
200/25(2^2)
do parenthesis first, the expression becomes
200/25*4
do your MULTIPLICATION first peMdas
200/100
then divide
200/100 = 2

MAGA retards

>>720756002
Actually they happen at the same time because division is just multiplying by a fraction.

The answer is still two though

>>720755994

gems is better because mut/division are interchangable when it comes to order
so grouping gives you
200/25x4 and you go left to right just like reading
so it is 200 divided by 25 then times 4 =32

so up to 200/25*4 you're right, but then it went down the track with you.

I'll explain PEMDAS step by step.
P - Parenthesis
E - Exponents
MD - Multiplication and Division (left to right)
AS - Addition and Subtraction (left to right)

The problem in question is 200/25(2^2).
P - 200/25(4)
E - 200/25(4)
MD - 8(4) --> 32

Multiplication doesn't necessarily come before division, ask any math teacher. MAGA.

Okay, if you fucking learn and understand how PEMDAS fucking works, it works like this: Parenthesis->Exponents->Multiplication and Division (left to right)-> Addition and Subtraction (Left to right). Multiplication/Division and Addition/Subtraction work as they do because it's the same operation, only backwards. So 200/25(2^2) -> 200/25(4) ->4(4) -> 8

PEMDAS!

1. Parenthesis
2. Exponents
3. Multiply/Divide
4. Addition/Subtraction

Congratulations on learning 4th grade math.

the * and brackets denote different multiplication.

The division sign and fraction bar denote different types of division.

These differences are specifically related on how the equation should be computed.

Thus learn some maths beyond 3rd grade PEMDAS.

There are multiple ways to write the order of operations. PEMDAS, BEDMAS, BODMAS etc. Notice how the M and D are moved around a lot.
Answer is 32. You kids are idiots

>>720759527
There isn't "proofs" this is about math being a language that is read. Learning and understand the syntax involved solves these issues.

People are stuck on PEMDAS, yet due to the obscurity of PEMDAS multiplication by juxtaposition or better known as implicit vs explicit multiplication and division helps solve these kind of troll math questions.

pemdas is thought differently in most schools

Hey you fucking communist hippie scum. The only thing I need to know are three letters U S and A

>>720760979
it's not poorly written, it's using / as a division symbol instead of ÷. There's nothing in the expression that would imply a fractional or rational relationship between both sides of the symbol without brackets when written on one line.

this is different from 25(2²) since the multiplication symbol, whether it be *, x, or •, is implied.

>>720761313
Is it? How do you know? / is a fraction bar. ÷ is a division bar.
Neither matter because 25(2^2) is implicit multiplication and cannot be broken. Thus order of operations indicates left to right.

200 divided by the grouping of 25(2^2)
Brackets = implicit, * = explicit aka not grouped.

>>720761410
shut the fuck up faggot.

you're contributing to the conversation in no significant manner by stating that a calculator is an "accurate machine"

a calculator is accurate because its programming would tokenize the expression from left to right and therefore could not assume that it is a fraction without parentheses or brackets

overthinking simple math lol

>>720761655
200 ÷ 25(2^2)

2^2 = 8
Thus 200 ÷ 25(8)
200 ÷ 25(8) the 25(8) is grouped by implicit multiplication. Thus 25(8) = 200

200 ÷ 200

I can do it with a fraction bar for the same effect as well.

Implicit vs explicit multiplication and division is the answer to poor notation that leads to issues with PEMDAS. Yes most high school maths do not discuss this, but it doesn't rule it out.
