3rd grade math problem


Recommended Posts

A math teacher in Vietnam challenged his third-grade class (read: 8-year-old students) to solve this seemingly simple arithmetic problem.

 

Apparently you're supposed to plug in the numbers 1 through 9, using each digit once, in each of the blank spaces. Using the identified operations and the inserted values, a correct answer would lead to a solution of 66 (those double dots stand for division, by the way).

iirc that problem usually ignore the arithmetic operator priority (or it was precedence?).

 

BODMAS rule still applies here. It's just an equation in serpentine form.
