New brainteaser that many adults are getting wrong has been sweeping the web – can you get it right?
Do you know the correct answer to: 9 – 3 ÷ 1/3 + 1 = ?
It may seem easy enough to answer – but the question is an example of slipping maths standards across generations, it has been claimed.
Can you figure it out?
a. 1
b. 3
c. 9
4. 12
The key to answering the question is all to do with a basic maths rule you were most likely taught at school but may have since forgotten.
