The Know Zone program, Mathematics section, gets it all wrong and the presenters need to go to school first before they mislead children.

sample this,

21-3×2+4÷2=

These idiots are giving the answer as 20.

@Tebes,
Kenyans are masters of impunity.......so much so that they will even defy BODMAS.....and it's straight and far much more easier....why rack your brains or even eat your hat?

21-3 =18
18x2 =36
36+4 =40
40/2 =20smile

Uta do??
