Answer is 12. Confirmed on Wolfram Alpha ![]() |

biafransoul: Albeit you MISTAKENLY got 12, that is not the evaluation procedures. Follow BODMAS, meaning 'Multiplication' first i.e. 3*3 = 9; then, the expression becomes: 3+9-3+3. But BODMAS says you can treat 'A' &'S' on the same level. This implies: 3+9= 12. Where: -3+3 = 0. Hope it is clear! I love you all! |

hahahahahaha.... dude how is the answer 18? Can you show how you arrived at this? EmtolalaaPRAISE: |
Re: PHOTO: 95% Of People Will Fail This Simple Mathematics by coolio2014(m): 7:23am On Sep 05, 2015 |
Dude answer is 12. Using Bodmas 3 + 3 x 3 - 3 + 3 BODMAS Step 1: 3 x 3 = 9 Step 2: 3 + 9 = 12 Step 3: 12 - 3 +3 -3 cancels out +3 Hence, answer = 12. Sincere4u: |

Am amaze to see that ppl fails dis simple arithmetic, that shows hw poor our background is on mathematics. The answer is 12. I will encourage those who got a different answr to go back $ refresh their memory on elementary mathematics. #oneLuv |

BishopMagic: Ogbeni.. you're the olodo here. Yes, Bodmas rightly applied. How did the subtraction sign {-} find its way outside the last bracket in line 1? Remove that last bracket, equate -3+3 to give 0 and you have your CORRECT answer. |
Re: PHOTO: 95% Of People Will Fail This Simple Mathematics by somiblaze(m): 8:23am On Sep 05, 2015 |
Dear frnds having d solution to be 6, I understand u follow BOAMAS meticulously but u hav failed to understand dat BODMAS does not ignore the sign of a noba. Hw can -3+3 be 6 or -6. I guess that's wat u do after d multiplication ((+3+9) to be 12 $ (-3+3) to be -6). -3+3 to be -6 is a vry big mathematical error be it BODMAS or not. The solution of d problem still remains 12 |

here there is no boundary you calculate direct 3+3=9 9×3=18 18-3=15 15+3=18 18QED |
Re: PHOTO: 95% Of People Will Fail This Simple Mathematics by BishopMagic: 8:38am On Sep 05, 2015 |
Djbaka: Olodo bodmas implies that subtraction is carried out last. Let me simplify it for you by substituting the value 3 for x You will get the following : X + X^2 - X + X Note this is not a linear equation that must be equal to zero hence the rules of bodmas must be applied. Therefore we must multiply first, then add before subtracting finally. Hence we get: [X + X^2] - [X + X] [ X + X^2] - 2X Substituting values for X = 3 [3 + 9] - 6 12 - 6 = 6 There is a reason why the OP stated that 95% of you will fail this simple test. Olodo if you math is up to scratch, simply assign Y as the answer then do the differential in the substitute equation. Thus: Y = X + X^2 - X + X dy/dx = 2X Where the differential is the point value on a static linear scale i.e. the value on the x axis since we are not dealing with a linear curve Substituting X = 3 we get the answer 6!
