0 peace*out Posted December 16, 2008 Report Share Posted December 16, 2008 I think it's 3. half of two plus two (1/2*2+2) is three. PEMDAS (or Please Excuse My Dear Aunt Sally), tells us to do Multiplication (M/My) before audition (A/Aunt). But truly, we need Cbass on here to sort this out!!

0 Guest Posted December 16, 2008 Report Share Posted December 16, 2008 The answer IS THREE. According to grammatical correctness, the first 2 items go first, the (hald of two) plus two, creating the exp​ression (1) + 2. HOWEVER, if you want to be technical, half of (two plus two), or half of 4 is two, but It ALL DEPENDS ON HOW YOU PUNCTUATE IT The answer is three. No Matter WHAT YOU SAY.
