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.

A
B
C
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!
Meghan Markle, unknown details of her life. Ten years ago, she married her first life partner in Jamaica.
Her first marriage lasted for two years and the two dated for seven years before tying the knot.
When it’s Meghan Markle, we know it would be spicy news. She married the prince of the UK and we can say they live a happy life as a couple away from England. Meghan had a real roller-coaster life starting as an actress and ending up as the prince’s wife.
Prince Harry and Meghan Markle decided to step away from the royal family and they have been in dispute for two years. It looks like things are beginning to cool off.
Their story started in 2016 when Harry was in love and a couple of months later, he took her to meet the Queen. Since she began to date Harry, swapped her career to adapt to royal life and no more than 12 months later they announced their engagement. They got married in May 2018.
Before the title of duces of Sussex, she was married to Trevor Engelson. He started the world of film working as a production assistant until he became a producer. They got married at the Jamaica Inn in Ocho Rios in Jamaica, a great ceremony for almost three days.
After all this, they both started working in different sets, and Trevor never visited her at her work. She had to move to Canada because of the Suit show. Meghan now started a new life without him by herself.
Her life changed over the years she moved to Toronto because now she hung out with other celebrities which distanced her from Trevor. Their relationship was unclear.
Recurses say that she broke his heart and her relationship with Harry has hit him hard. one of her closest friends said that once she got the celebrity status she was embarrassed by her husband.
She never spoke about her divorce in public, Trevor too. Now she is married to Prince Harry and lives out of the royal family. They live in the US with their son Archie and daughter Lilibeth, after stepping back in March last year from royal duties.
Some people think the duke didn’t deserve the wreath because he no longer represents the British Armed Forces and couldn’t have it both ways.
They left their royal duties and pursued a civil careers. In fact, a royal expert claimed that they could have done that without leaving the royal family because the Queen gave them many options for the future.
What do you think about this? Did you know she was married before being in a relationship with Prince Harry? Share your thoughts in the comments on Facebook.
