This math problem is tricking a lot of people: 18 + 6 × 3 = ?
The key is following the correct order of operations (PEMDAS/BODMAS). Multiplication comes before addition.
Here’s the correct solution:
• First, do the multiplication: 6 × 3 = 18
• Then solve the addition: 18 + 18 = 36
Many people solve it left to right and get 72, but that’s incorrect.
