Math is an interesting an enjoyable subject for some, and a challenging and tricky subject for others.
There are three different variables in this math puzzle, and each line needs to be solved before you can move on to the next one.
Do your best to answer the question, then read the explanation below to see if you got it correct!
Can you solve this?
Chrome + Chrome + Chrome = 24
Firefox + Firefox + Chrome = 20
Firefox x Omini – Omini = 10
Chrome + Firefox ÷ Omini = ??
1. Chrome
Chrome + Chrome + Chrome = 24.
3Chrome = 24
Chrome = 24/3
Chrome = 8
2. Firefox
Firefox + Firefox + Chrome = 20
Firefox + Firefox + 8 = 20
Firefox + Firefox = 12
2Firefox = 12
Firefox = 12/2
Firefox = 6
3. Omini
For this part it’s important to remember the order of operations which are the rules of math stating which procedures to perform first in order to evaluate a given mathematical expression.
The order of operations = PEMDAS = Parentheses, Exponents, Multiplication/Division, Addition/Subtraction.
Firefox x Omini – Omini = 10
6 x Omini – Omini = 10
Multiply comes before subtract:
6 Omini – Omini = 10
5 Omini = 10
Omini = 10/5
Omini = 2
4. Answer
Chrome + Firefox ÷ Omini = ??
8 + 6 ÷ 2 = ??
PEMDAS: First divide, then add.
8 + 6/2 = ??
8 + 3 = ??
11 = ??
The answer is 11.
