I think…? = 42…

[mwilles (Martin Willes, CMI)]

I agree 42. No wait that does not work out for the second equation.

[bcawhern1 (Brian Cawhern, CMI)]

482… Give or take

[srechkin (Simon Rechkin)]

I don’t get it.

@srechkin

I don’t get it…

You have to figure out the value of each item.

[jmckee (James McKee)]

those items are of no value to me so the answer is 0 …

[mwilles (Martin Willes, CMI)]

Let’s start with the value of a large coffee cup is 3.
If we know with a tea cup value is the rest will fall in line.

[pgiannino (Peter Giannino, CMI®)]

I believe the tea cup value is 2.

[mwilles (Martin Willes, CMI)]

I think that would make the second row =20.

1. 3x3x3=27
2. 3+2×2×2=11
3. 2x3x6=36
4. (3×3-2)×6=42

[mwilles (Martin Willes, CMI)]

@jfudge

3+2×2×2=11

Are you sure about that? Maybe if it was 3+(2x2x2).

[jfudge (JR Scott Fudge, CPI)]

@mwilles

Are you sure about that?

Multiplication & division before addition & subtraction.

Winner winner, chicken dinner!

[lkage (Larry Kage, CMI)]

@jfudge

• 3x3x3=27
• 3+2×2×2=11
• 2x3x6=36
• (3×3-2)×6=42

I can go with that, JR…

[lkage (Larry Kage, CMI)]

@pgiannino

I think……? = 42…

@rkenney

Winner winner, chicken dinner.!

Way to go, Peter!

[glarin (Gilles Larin, ACI,CMI, NHI, Lifetime Member)]

Also, Parentheses and Exponents before all.

Remember the order using PEMDAS: **
Parentheses and Exponents, Multiplication and Division (from left to right), Addition and Subtraction (from left to right)** .
