This quick math puzzle asks you to solve 2 + 3 × 0 + 2. The image says the answer is not 5, and the order of operations explains why.
The correct answer is 4.
Multiplication comes before addition, so first calculate 3 × 0 = 0. The expression then becomes 2 + 0 + 2 = 4.
The common mistake is to add numbers too early or ignore the multiplication step.
