WEDNESDAY MORNING MATH PUZZLER SOLVED!
🧠☕ WEDNESDAY MORNING MATH PUZZLER! ➕➗
Who’s really awake this morning? ⏰🤔 Today’s challenge is:
28 + 18 ÷ 3 = ?
Before grabbing the calculator, remember PEMDAS — the Order of Operations!
P – Parentheses
E – Exponents
M/D – Multiplication & Division
A/S – Addition & Subtraction
✏️ STEP-BY-STEP SOLUTION
Step 1 — Division comes before addition.
18 ÷ 3 = 6
Now substitute that back into the expression:
28 + 6
Step 2 — Add:
28 + 6 = 34
🎯 FINAL ANSWER: 34 ✅
⚠️ WATCH OUT FOR THE COMMON MISTAKE!
If you simply work from left to right:
28 + 18 = 46
46 ÷ 3 = 15⅓ ❌
That's incorrect because division must be completed before addition.
If the problem were written (28 + 18) ÷ 3, then the parentheses would tell us to add first — but there are no parentheses in today's puzzler.
🎉 So if you answered 34, you nailed it!
👇 Did you get 34 on your first try? Drop your answer in the comments — but don't spoil the steps for everyone else! 😄🧠
