I wrote a (very long) blog post about those viral math problems and am looking for feedback, especially from people who are not convinced that the problem is ambiguous.
It's about a 30min read so thank you in advance if you really take the time to read it, but I think it's worth it if you joined such discussions in the past, but I'm probably biased because I wrote it :)
Damn ragebait posts, it's always the same recycled operation. They could at least spice it up, like the discussion about absolute value. What's |a|b|c|?
What I gather from this, is that Geogebra is superior for not allowing ambiguous notation to be parsed 👌
Your example with the absolute values is actually linked in the "Even more ambiguous math notations" section.
Geogebra has indeed found a good solution but it only works if you input field supports fractions and a lot of calculators (even CAS like WolframAlpha) don't support that.
Except that isn't ambiguous either. See my reply to the original comment.
Geogebra has done the same thing as Desmos, which is wrong. Desmos USED TO give correct answers, but then they changed it to automatically interpret / as a fraction, which is good, except when they did that it ALSO now interprets ÷ as a fraction, which is wrong. ½ is 1 term, 1÷2 is 2 terms (but Desmos now treats it as 1 term, which goes against the definition of terms)
