I wrote a (very long) blog post about those viral math problems and am looking for feedback, especially from people who are not convinced that the problem is ambiguous.
Itโs about a 30min read so thank you in advance if you really take the time to read it, but I think itโs worth it if you joined such discussions in the past, but Iโm probably biased because I wrote it :)
It doesnโt make sense in BODMAS either. Expanding Brackets has precedence ofโฆ Brackets, not โmultiplicationโ - โMultiplicationโ refers literally to multiplication signs, of which there are none in this question.
The y(n+1) is same as yn + y if you removed the โ6รทโ part. Itโs implied multiplication.
The y(n+1) is same as yn + y
No, itโs the same as (yn+y). You canโt remove brackets unless there is only 1 term left inside.
if you removed the โ6รทโ part. Itโs
โฆThe Distributive Law.
Well Iโm not seeing the difference here. Yn+y= yn+y = y(n+1) = y ร (n +1) I think we agree with that.
