Your Daily Equation #22: 8 - 2 ÷ 2 x 3 + 4 = ?

Episode 22 #YourDailyEquation: Simple arithmetic problems go viral with people proposing all sorts of different answers. It speaks to an important concept--the order of various operations matters--but, as Brian Greene discusses, is often taught in a less-than-inspirational way in the classroom (and also differs markedly from the approach of professionals). Watch this episode of YDE and let Brian know whether you agree with his assessment.

We’d love to see & hear your questions for future Q&As with Brian Greene. Send us a video (less than 20 seconds please!) of yourself asking your question to: questions@worldsciencefestival.com

Monday - Friday at 3pm EDT, Brian will offer brief and breezy discussions of pivotal equations. Even if your math is a bit rusty, tune in for accessible and exciting stories of nature and numbers that will allow you to see the universe in a new way.
