Topic Review The question 48 \div 2(9+3) has been a war on the internet for years now. I will like you to follow my prove with a pen and note in your hand Maths Is The Study Of Balance You will probably think what does this guy mean my maths is the study of balance. Let take a look at weighing scale Weighing scale Weighing scale is a good example of left-hand side {LHS} and right-hand side {RHS} in our day to day mathematics. it also explains the value at the LHS is equal to the value at the RHS to make it stay balanced. we have x^a \times x^b = x^{ab} example 2^2 \times 2^3 = 2^{2+3} = 2^5 = 32 to bring our answer back to the first step we need to use this x^{ab} = x^a \times x^b example 32 = 2^5 = 2^{2+3} = 2^2 \times 2^3 which tells you ether you use the reverse way x^a \times x^b = x^{ab} or x^{ab} = x^a \times x^b you are still use the rule of indices only in the re...
