2^11/4+1

2048/5
409.6

In any case it shouldn't be too hard if you use a calculator... I mean, seriously. If I'm going by the first case, it's just 2^(11/5). 11/5 is 2.2. So, it's basically 2^2.2, which is ~4.6.

2048/4=512
512+1=513.

I know and understand where Perun is coming from - however, I was just elaborating on how LC calculated it - by using order of operations. To put it simply, what is in the brackets (parenthesis) is calculated first, then the power of, then the division and finally the addition. This gives us 513.____no5 said:yeah that's the logic !!
Albie take a look at this
One of the first things you are taught when studying programming is the order of operations (along with truth tables).LooseCannon said:Which is why you're the new Maidenfans Math Guy®.
