Challenge: Can you solve this math problem for middle schoolers – without a calculator?

Classic brain training methods are perhaps puzzles like crosswords or sudoku, but I have recently become more attracted to the type of challenge you’ll see below.

These puzzles have been flooding the web lately, probably because they are really fun!

These are old classic mathematical problems. When you were in middle or high school.

These math problems are more fun when you find yourself trying to remember the math you learned as a child.

Can you figure out the correct solution?

Here is the challenge, in the picture below.

At the top of the picture, we see the task and then four possible answers.

Which solution do you think is the correct one?

How did you come up with it?

Take your time and think about it to find the correct solution.

Done? Below you can check if you picked the right number!

The correct answer

The correct answer is B: 12.

Why is 12 the correct answer?

Well, if you remember from your school days, according to the order of operations, you do multiplication before addition and subtraction, so you start by solving 3 x 3, which results in 9.

Then we are left with a simpler math problem: 3 + 9 – 3 + 3

The answer is therefore 12.

Did you pick the correct number? Congratulations!

“Beauty icons age too!” The way actress Heather Locklear changed caused controversy

Heather Locklear is remembered by many as the icon for her role in “Melrose Place”, which took her career to new heights. Her captivating beauty, beautiful blonde hair and femininity made her a symbol of blonde beauty.

But as life goes, she too had her challenges over time.

Paparazzi were recently spotted as the ace actress took a leisurely stroll with her fiancé Chris Heisser. The couple explored the offerings at Whizin Market Square in Agoura Hills, California, and couldn’t escape the camera lenses.

After browsing the antique shops, Locklear was spotted carrying a small bag.

Few know that the two were actually a high school couple whose innocent love developed into something more mature. In 2018, Heather sought help in a rehabilitation program to deal with past abuse, leading to rumors about the complexities of her current relationship.
