This viral math problem is sparking debates everywhere—and surprisingly, people can’t agree on the answer.
The equation is: 4 + 8 ÷ 2 × 0
Some say the answer is 4… others insist it’s 0. So who’s right?
The confusion comes down to one important rule: the order of operations. Division and multiplication must be solved first, from left to right, before addition.
So let’s break it down:
8 ÷ 2 = 4
Then 4 × 0 = 0
Now the equation becomes: 4 + 0
Which gives the final answer: 4
It’s a great example of how even simple problems can trick your brain when you rush or skip steps.
That’s why puzzles like this go viral—they’re easy to read, but hard to get right.
So… what answer did you get?
