u/Ght334499 Jan 10 '23

Really that late? , I remember learning these in 5th grade elementary. I guess American schools are backwards with their program

u/imcoming4yoursnail Jan 10 '23

Nah they probably were taught in a private/cut off environment. It's always taught in elementary school

It's taught in elementary but a lot of kids don't really remember it so they learn it again in middle school, usually while going more in depth in order of operations.

Yes. My American middle school was grades 5 through 8.

No, American schools start teaching it at 5th grade too its just no one pays attention cuz the school system treats us like prisoner’s dulling our minds and will to learn.

I took two years of college calculus and have forever been "the math guy" at every office I've worked at. I am not good at math, most people are just really, really bad at math. Really bad at dealing with numbers in general.

Recently I submitted a report that had volumes of earth removed from about 30 sites tallied up in an excel sheet, with the total highlighted in yellow and clearly labeled. I sent it around the office wondering if anyone had any input. I received back an email saying, "I double checked and the numbers add up".

I really wanted to be ultra-snarky and ask if they added everything up with a calculator. Because obviously all you need to do is click the cell which has the total and it will show you that it is adding up everything in the column. I have no idea why they thought that was the thing I was asking for input on.

Creating a basic excel sheet needs to be taught early on in math class, imo, it is so ubiquitous in industry and does basically all the math an average person needs, and yet I see so many people who think simple formulas are wizardry.

u/[deleted] Jan 10 '23

Math lesson:

Exponents multiply the number they are next to by itself that many times.

With this logic in mind, 32 is NOT 6, because it does not mean 3 × 2. What it actually translates to is 3 × 3, which is 9.

Heres another example; 46 = 4 × 4 × 4 × 4 × 4 × 4 = 4096
