@otokyo__ It's 1,050 — because "divided by half" might sound like "divided in half" — but it's a trick question. Here's the first line of the solution: 500 ÷ ½ = 500 × 2

@yonlineauntie “Orders” means square roots and indices (which you may know as square numbers, powers, or exponents). Americans say PEMDAS — parentheses, exponents, ×,÷, +, –

Back when I was growing up with four brothers and a single mother, we didn't get fully loaded EBT cards to spend on whatever we wanted. Here's what my mother picked up each month to help us survive: • a block of processed cheese (what some called ‘government cheese’) • a large can of peanut butter • a can of luncheon meat or canned meat • powdered or evaporated milk • a bag of flour • a bag of rice or grain • lard or cooking fat • butter or surplus butter • canned vegetables or fruits • dry beans or legumes I’m sure many from my generation have vivid memories of being on welfare assistance. The government gave us what we needed to survive, but there were definitely no bells or whistles. Let’s get back to that!

@TheOnlyDSC The cartels monitor President Trump's pronouncements even more closely than his detractors in the US media. They will adjust their behavior accordingly.

Trick question: "Divide by half" could mean 30÷2 or 30÷½ just like "bimonthly" could mean twice a month or every two months. (30÷2)+10 = 25 (30÷½)+10 = 70 I taught English AND math.
