Hi Horndogg

I also got 50 as the answer.

(15 * 32) / 20 + 45 - 19 = ?

Is the answer 50?

I am no good at this new math.

If you're bad at math and want to avoid having to ask people (especially with a time limited STQ) all you have to do is copy and paste the equation into Google.

Google will solve it for you.

And yes, it is 50, because if you solve the equation following the order of BEDMAS (Brackets first, then Exponents, then Division, then Multiplication, then Addition, then Subtraction) it would go:

(15 * 32) / 20 + 45 - 19 = ?

(15 * 32) / 20 + 45 - 19 = ?

480 / 20 + 45 - 19 = ?

24 + 45 - 19 = ?

69 - 19 = 50

For future STQ answers, always ensure you use BEDMAS people! They can and will get you on it!

Got registered mail from Montreal, does anyone know what contest just ended based in Montreal? That's all I can think of....must be release forms because I have no business stuff coming from Montreal.

Several years ago, a grocer in the area that I lived was holding a contest for a gift certificate. I was filling out the ballot when one of the cashiers mentioned that the answer to the skill testing question was already filled out by hand on all ballots by the store. I quickly told her that their answer was wrong, and that she needed to notify whoever created it. They had NOT used BEDMAS, so the two answers were very different. I scratched it out and put in the correct answer with a note about BEDMAS (I'm sure that went over well LOL!). Ironic, isn't it? They should test their own skills, first... (Or maybe they were trying to sabotage everyone else's chances of winning :S )
Luckily for people who forget to use the rules of math, I've found the majority of skill-testing questions are in BEDMAS order from left to right anyway, so the answer would be the same, like the one above.

congrats to all the winners!!! Good luck to everyone on future wins!!!

I've had the same thing happen with a contest!

Mind you, then there are the ones whose STQ is "0+8=___" - love those!
