I love the one where there's a picture of a question from an exam paper that a student has answered, the question containing an equation, something like: 3x+4=12, Find x.
And the student draws an arrow to the x and writes "Here it is!"

You are right of course but let's take it easy, we don't want to scare anyone off or I will let you explain the (-) * (-) is a + |

Scaling I think?
180 degrees |

"Yes Bodmas or Bidmas
Haven’t got a clue  "
Brackets and order of powers and roots firs then divivision then multiplication, addition and substraction. So if you have things inside brackets for example you do that first so 3*(4+6) you do the bits inside the brackets first which is 10 and then you multiply by 3 so the answer is 30. |

"What is the mean (average) of
5 6 1 4 4
Also what is the mode (most), median (the middle when you put them in order) and range (difference between largest and smallest) of the above"
Mean = 4
Mode = 4
Median = 4
Range = 5 |

Also what is the mode (most), median (the middle when you put them in order) and range (difference between largest and smallest) of the above
Mean = 4 5+6+1+4+4 = 20 you add them together and divide by 5 as there are 5 nos so answer is 4
Mode = 4 as 4 appears twice
Median = 4 put in order 1 4 4 5 6 so the middle no is 4
Range = 5"
6 - 1 = 5
You are awarded all three stars, well done |

Well done its 6/30 or (6 in 30)and if you simplify its the same as 1 in 5 or 1/5.
Now that's it from me unless someone is keen to take over |
