I Need Help Solving This Math Problem

[Winco]

Every number in power '0' is equal '1'.

Ahh, that’s a fun one… I’ll give it a shot.

We know that 6^1=6
This can also be expressed as a fraction
(6^2)/(6^1)=(6x6)/6=6

So if we divide it down get to 6^0 there are no more multiples in the numerator and we are left with it 6/6 which equals 1

Does that make sense?

That's correct.
Good answer.



I explain it through division and multiplication.

6° implies division by the same number, which equals 1.

7/7 = 1
11/11 = 1
x/x = 1

Why does 6° imply division by the same number, because of exponent rules.

6^4 divided by 6^4 = 6° , because 4-4 = 0, which equals 1.

I thought you meant 6 degrees. vs. Radians or something more complicated. Board typing is not good for math functions.

360° = 2π radians.

Means the Radius wraps around the circumference of a circle (360°) 2π times (approx) 6.28 times.

Hey JohnDB, do you want to take a crack at this?

Math is the debbil

So is it five or eleven guys? I'm confused.

look at post 14.....

look at post 14.....

Well, I know that it's 11 now.

I do believe that we're supposed to use PEMDAS here but I'm not sure how to get the final answer. It's:

3x3-3÷3+3


Now according to PEMDAS you would multiply 3x3 and get nine and three divided by three is one, three plus three equals six and finally three minus three is zero but is that what we're even supposed to do here because I don't know how to get the final answer.

Because according to how this is printed the answer is 11.

Look at it this way....due to how it is expressed:
(3×3)-(3÷3)+3
9-1+3
=11

Changing the brackets will radically change the answer. But with the way you originally printed the equation that's how it goes together.

There are three kinds of people...
Those good at math
Those not good at math.

4/5 of Americans have trouble with fractions.
The other 1/3 don't.
