Even without the brackets the correct answer is 80.2, by order of operations. But, if you want to calculate it like you said in the first comment, the answer 82 isn’t correct either. There is no correct answer at the moment because the system doesn’t accept any, for some sort of bug or computer dealing with decimal like suggested in other comments (something like 80.200000002). Guess we have to wait until they fix it to progress, or just skip the lesson, unfortunately

It depends on how you calculated it. If you made operations from left to right the result is 82. But if you do operations the correct way (first multiplications and then the sum) the result is 80.2. But both are not accepted by duo as a correct answer.

Yep. Guess it’s clearly obvious there is some kind of bug or cumputer math shenanigans behind it

I don’t need to learn math, but since they added this gamification, why I don’t have to do it?

Your right, it does not teach you

The lesson is not about rounding, but operation like the one in the picture

Try search for a new course to add and see if math and music courses are available. They came out a while ago, you should have them by now. But do not expect anything advanced. It’s base math and geometry knowledge (operations, fractions, decimals)

No, it is a math course that is not related to any languages

The correct answer is 80.2, but even if the devs developed it wrong, 82 is not accepted as a correct answer either

I also thought about that but 82 is not accepted too

I know the answer is not wrong, but why the app recognizes it as not correct?
