🧠💡 Let’s See If You Still Got It!
“50 + 50 – 25 × 0 + 2 + 2 = ?”
A Little Math Teaser Just for Fun!
Remember when solving math problems was part of everyday life—balancing a checkbook, splitting the bill at the diner, or helping your kids with homework? Well, here’s a little brain workout just for YOU.
Let’s travel back to fifth grade math for a second. Try this:
50 + 50 – 25 × 0 + 2 + 2 = ?
Take your time. No rush. No calculator. Just your brain.
🤔 Let’s Break It Down Together:
If you remember the order of operations (yes, PEMDAS still applies!)—
Parentheses, Exponents, Multiplication & Division, Addition & Subtraction—
then you’ve already got the secret weapon.
Let’s go step by step:
- Multiplication first:
→ 25 × 0 = 0 - Now plug that back in:
→ 50 + 50 – 0 + 2 + 2 - Now go left to right:
→ 50 + 50 = 100
→ 100 – 0 = 100
→ 100 + 2 = 102
→ 102 + 2 = 104
🎉 The Answer Is: 104!
Did you get it right?
If yes—you’re sharper than a tack!
If not—don’t worry, it’s not a test. It’s just a reminder that your brain still loves a good puzzle.
🧠 Why This Matters
Studies show that simple mental exercises like this—yes, even solving a nostalgic math riddle—help keep your mind sharp, boost memory, and even lift your mood.
So next time you’re sipping your morning coffee or chatting with a friend, throw this one out there:
“Hey, what’s 50 + 50 – 25 × 0 + 2 + 2?”
You’ll be amazed how many people pause, squint, and go, “Wait… what’s the trick?”
