I dunno
(piefed.cdn.blahaj.zone)
A place for majestic STEMLORD peacocking, as well as memes about the realities of working in a lab.

Rules
This is a science community. We use the Dawkins definition of meme.
Gotta distribute:
2+(8+5)-(5+5)
2+13-0
15
Still not how distribution works. That would be:
2+((8 * 5)-(5 * 5))
2+(40-25)
2+(15)
17
Anything other than 17 is wrong. No matter how you go about your multiplication step.
wizardry!
You're trolling, but no, if you distribute you get the same result:
2 + 5(8 - 5) =
2 + (5 × 8) + (5 × -5) =
2 + (40) + (-25) =
2 + 40 - 25 = 2 + 15 = 17
Yes i am, but if you subtract 15 from both sides it's 2.
