No time to check if it's been reported here but reported elsewhere that the mince and a's meal deal is still working today.

I think I agree with marrbett:-

BIDMAS = brackets, indices, division, multiplication, addition, subtraction in that order so

3-3x6+2=
3x6 = 18
+2 = 20
3-20= -17

I agree.

I was taught BODMAS-brackets, of, division, multiplication, addition, subtraction.

It can't be -17. This is why:

-18 + 2 is -16 .... not -20!!

-13 is the answer

Hey......it's Shrove Tuesday.....are you pancaking today izzey?

What's everyone's favourite topping?

I'm a bit traditional....lemon and sugar for me:D

Lemon and sugar here too. Mine are all 90% cooked, yes all 24 of them. It makes it easy for tea time, just need a very hot pan, pop pancake in count to 12, flip over and count to 12. Done, ready to eat.


Good afternoon Elite :wave:

I'm a late starter today . Didn't crawl outta bed until 10.30am :eek: then sat in a sheltered corner of the garden for coffee and a ciggie whilst playing a few games of candy.

Hugs to those in need . Hugs to others just because :cool:

Postie yesterday brought me some L'oreal face cream :j it smells gorgeous , I'm really looking forward to doing the review for it . Has anyone else got this from bzz?

Dental appointment at 2.30pm today, my stomache is in knots :eek: and this is just a check up :eek: I hate going . I'm a very nervous patient, you wouldn't think it as I am one to stand up bravely for myself with anything else :rotfl:

I didn't get a meal deal as I had no space to keep wedges or ice cream but I do today, typical :mad: I guess it's no longer working

Time I shuffle off and start to do a catch up before I head out. See you all when I get home X

Meal deal and Turkey mince working

I haven't a clue what you lot are on about with the maths . I did algebra and geometry at school and my tables along with division, plus and minus but what's this about, doing them in a proper order :eek:

Time I left the page hastily before I embarrass myself further

Always do multiplication before addition/subtraction. Otherwise your answer will depend on the order the equation is written.

The equation could be written
3+2-3*6
It's the same equation just in a different order and will have the same answer.
However, using your method the answer would be:
3+2=5
5-3=2
2*6=12!

Where as if you do the multiplication first.
3*6 = 18
3+2-18 = -13

The correct answer
