What Is The Solution To This Question? by umtitibaba(m): 3:59pm On Feb 21, 2022
This question is currently causing division on Twitter as people are getting different answers .. so i bring it here, what is the solution to this question?

According to my calculation , the answer is 16 using BODMAS but some are getting 1 using the same BODMAS rule causing division as to which answer is correct... So what is your answer - 16 or 1?

Consider the bracket first.
8/2(2+2)
2+2=4
2(4)= 8
8/8=1.

it should be
8/2(2+2)
8/2(4) = 4(4) = 16
