Dumbass, its 58. Singular parentheses is interpreted as a multiplication in this case. The only order you'd get from the parentheses is that the 3 exists first which, well no shit, and has no meaningful result on the resultant order of operations. Written out it'd be:
6^2 / 2 * 3 + 4
36 / 2 * 3 + 4
18 * 3 + 4
54 + 4
58
>>
Would order of operations not dictate that you do exponents first, so 6 squared = 36. After that, everything is just in order, because 2(3) is the same as 2*3. It's just a way of writing multiplication, not the other kind of bracket. So 36/2 = 18. 18*3 = 54. 54 + 4 = 58.

The scale doesn't move if the weight of the ping pong ball shell is balanced against the surface tension of the string holding the steel ball. If that's not the case and the ping pong ball has the same external dimensions as the steel ball, the left side weighs only as much more than the right side by the weight of the ping pong ball shell itself, and possibly the added weight of the string.

PEMDAS
Parenthesis

Multiplication == Division
Addition == Subtraction

Rewriting the equation
6^2 / 2 * 3 + 4

Notice that now there's no parenthesis because what's inside the parenthesis is not an equation nor distribution therefore it's multiplication.

Now just go left to right:

36 / 2 * 3 + 4
18 * 3 + 4
54 + 4 = 10

The answer is 10

The fuck? It's 58 mang.

You need to express the 6^2/2 part as (6^2/2) x 3 + 4.

The problem is needlessly vague. Especially for people who remember PEMDAS, but forget that the rule is to work left to right for operations of equal rank (multiplication an division).

yes, (x) becomes a multiplication with priority. it's x times the multiplicative identity.

well, you're wrong, because x/y(z) after the P in PEMDAS is just x / y * z which is solved left-to-right as you normally would if you didn't fail 5th grade math.

You are wrong. You're trying to distribute the 2 as if you were solving for a variable, when you should be solving the equation.

For example,

2(x+2x+3x) = 24

If you wanted to solve for x, you'd distribute.

2x+4x+6x = 24
12x = 24
x = 2

But that is not how you solve an equation. So let's look at the same problem.

2(2+2(2)+3(2)) = ?

Rather than distributing, you first solve the inside of the parenthesis using P|E|MD|AS.

2(2+4+6)
2(12)

2(12) is multiplication, not distribution. In this case it doesn't matter and the answer is 24 either way, but in OP's case 36/2 is solved before 2(3) so it matters.

This has been your daily middle school math lesson.
>>
>>74125757
PEMDAS' "P" does not mean single numbers. Those are just treated like multiplication. It doesn't magically change 3's priority in the problem.

Standard interpretation of parenthetical notation doesn't change based on whether or not the first coefficient is enclosed in separate parentheses
That would be redundant and defeat the purpose of a different interpretation of parentheses

10 is correct, to everyone saying 58:

Parentheses on a singular term means the number within said parentheses must be multiplied by the whatever is next to it, in this case being the two.

If the parentheses were around the (6^2/2) then the 3 would be multiplied by the quotient within the parentheses

Are you retarded? You do what's INSIDE parentheses first. After that it's the equivalent of writing 2*3
