9squared-51-13+7=24

The "^2" means I'm squaring the 9 which gives me 81 obviously.

Um, there isnt a 2 in the list of numbers. You can only use the numbers he puts up.

Let me clear a little thing up between roots and exponents...

The only reason you can square root something, without having a two, is because the square root symbol doesnt normally come with a two.

Obviously, telling me you need something squares requires a two in normal notation

So, fabio, I cant accept that answer...

what?


7 plus 3 is 10.
10 minus 4 is 6.
6 times 4 is 24.

Luigi, don't tell me you don't know what order of operations are. Multiplication and division always come first before addition and subtraction in the order of operations.

Now, this gives me the perfect chance to get some points. _¬

Technically it's. Parenthesis. Exponents. Multiplication and division. Addition and subtraction.

I always found PEMDAS stupid because implies obviously wrong answers whenever subtraction is involved.

And surely Luigi-San means (7+3-4)4=24.

So I'm pretty sure Kyouji cleaned up that round. Since, you know, Luigi quoting his answer doesn't make it Luigi's answer.
