    A multiple choice question where all the answers are wrong, says nothing about math or the mathematical understanding of the general population.

    This is engagementbait and its hooked you too.

      That’s normal for multiple choice, and sometimes all the answers are correct. You’re supposed to pick the most correct based on the viewpoint of the course.

      We can assume it’s 16 because the audience weren’t taught order of operations. (2+2)*4

        No it isn’t.

        Not in multiple choice they aren’t. At best you might have “D) All of the above” if there’s genuinely more than 1 answer

        We can assume

        Someone screwed up somewhere, and there will be lots of complaints from students. Despite it being “you only had 1 job”, proofreaders still miss things sometimes…

          All I can assume from you is that you never did multiple choice questions in University.

          There’s a reason essay questions are considered easier.

            That would be a wrong assumption.

            They’re not! 😂
