It was an Algebra problem with parenthesis. Find the variable. I solved it, then looked at the answer. It said the answer is either *this* or *that*, depending on how the problem was solved! I'm old school, so I used the PEMDAS method.......... It's no wonder kids are confused by math if two people can solve the same problem, get two different answers, and both be correct! well . . . yes and no.
