I'm a (substitute) elementary teacher (qualified for Pre-K-8th, also specialty classes such as spanish as a foreign language, information technology, and P.E.).

You have to do that math in between the parenthese and or exponents first

That's so awesome though. *amazed*

Ah... I should have known Exponents from Computing, we were never taught the power part

Ok, and I should already know this but what where the l l?

@[Super Emo]- What grade level are you?

Is there a round coming up?

@Emo: Total Value. I think :sweat:

|| = absolute value.

They make numbers positives.

So | - 200 | = 200.

Yea later....I think

I'm surprised by how much math I remember...

Ah... I know that to be a TOTALLY different thing, which I currently can't remember

I have got to study soon.

Maybe, but it's a huge pain in the butt when you come out from high school to the English learning colleges and universities. rofl

There is a running joke about diameters and radius here. Radius in Malay is "jejari", which, directly translated to English, also means "fingers". :lol:

-gulp- Here "My Dear Aunt Sally" (minus the parenthesis and exponents) is taught around 5th/6th grade, the last year of elementary school (ages 10-12).

Ooh That's cool, Minty. What language is that? :o

*mind is swirling* too much math..

Oh, and parenthesis is "tanda kurung", exponential is easier to remember, being directly altered in language to "exponansi".

Yeah, but we don't use it that way, I know the term just not the way of remembering it and once you get into higher maths you don't use half the basics so you just tune it out. XP

::flails:: crow! That's so awesome. And I learned it in fourth grade I think. So it's still taught in my old elementary school as far as I know.

Tagalog :) And jejari is close to the tagalog word for finger too, which is daliri. Guess it's cause Malaysia's a neighbor =3

When I accept a job, I have to walk into any classroom and know the proper way to teach anything in their cirriculum for the year and answer any of their questions. One time I was answering some fifth grade mathematics homework questions on the whiteboard while thinking to myself how I haven't actually had to do such in over a decade -.-

I have another year and half, takign wat too long

d2, that is such a cute fox plushie.

xD poor d2.

i get out in a yeaaar WOOHOO!!
