At first glance, many people rush to answer 49 because they simply add all the 7s together. But that’s not how math works!
The expression is:
7 + 7 ÷ 7 + 7
According to the order of operations, division always comes before addition.
Step by step:
- 7 ÷ 7 = 1
- Then the equation becomes:
- 7 + 1 + 7 = 15
✅ Correct Answer: 15
Neither 49 nor 39 is correct!
🎉 If you got 15, congratulations—you have excellent logical thinking and pay attention to mathematical rules instead of rushing to an answer. You’re definitely a smart thinker!
