This Viral Math Test Almost Broke The Internet

When was the last time you took a test? If you are in school, you probably take them on a regular basis but once school is over, we often try to stay away from tests when we possibly can.

There may actually be benefits to taking tests regularly. If you choose the right one, it is going to be enjoyable and can sharpen your mind because it helps to keep it active.

One type of test that you may enjoy doing is a math test. Fortunately, this one is not graded but if you are able to find the correct answer, you are better than most people who tried.

Math is something that is not always as straightforward as people would like to think that it is. Then again, someone who is in middle school would be able to solve this problem without difficulty but as we get older, we tend to forget something very important about math equations.

I’m talking about the order of operations and by now, it may be coming back to you again. Remember, you have to do the multiplication and division first before you do the addition and subtraction.

That makes us question much different, and you are actually solving the middle first and then working from left to right. The first answer that you get when doing the puzzle is the one you are graded on. Now that you know the secret, what is the actual answer?

Solving this, we see the answer shaping up as: 3 + 9 – 3 + 3 = ?

The answer is B: 12
