A Tricky Math Problem That Stumps Most!
Remember those classic math problems from middle or high school? Revisiting them can be a blast, especially when you’re trying to recall the math you learned as a kid.
Here’s the kicker: 90% of people can’t answer this one correctly! I’m about to throw a school-level math problem your way. But if you graduated years ago, it won’t be a walk in the park. As we age, it’s easy to forget the order of operations.
So, here’s the question: Can you solve this equation?
It’s time to put your thinking cap on.
Sure, it’s not straightforward. In fact, less than 50% of folks get it right on the first try.
Now, for the brain teaser—can you figure out the answer? Dig deep and remember those math rules!

Answer: Below, we’ll reveal the answer.
If you notice that there’s no operation sign between the numbers at the end of each row and the next one, you’ll get the trick.
So, they’re actually 22s.
The “2 x 0” on the last line equals 0. When there are no parentheses, multiplication should always be done before addition.
2+2+2+2+22+2+2+2+22+2×0+2 = 60.
The answer is 60.
Did you solve it correctly?
