Is 1 equivalent to 0.999~ (to infinitiy) ???]]> http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/518531/5468312.page http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/518531/5468312.page GMT Hard Question
Remembering my BIDMAS (Brackets, Indices, Division and Multiplication, Addition and Subtraction)

So Multiplication would come first i.e -6x6 which equals -36.

Plugging that back in gives us 6-36 = -30. ]]> http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/518531/5468316.page http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/518531/5468316.page GMT Hard Question Please don't spam the forum.]]> http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/518531/5468404.page http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/518531/5468404.page GMT
