I wrote a (very long) blog post about those viral math problems and am looking for feedback, especially from people who are not convinced that the problem is ambiguous.
It's about a 30min read so thank you in advance if you really take the time to read it, but I think it's worth it if you joined such discussions in the past, but I'm probably biased because I wrote it :)
This isn't a multi-part problem, and any basic calculator other than Texas Instruments gets it correct.
Fractions are always written as fractions - they are 1 term - 2 separate terms are always separated by an operator, such as a division sign, like in this case.
Good advice! In particular look up what they say about The Distributive Law.
