It is easy to interpret as (N x Y) + N =.

Then each line stands on its own. And you can plug any new numbers in for N or Y.

I like my math to be associative. One problem should not depend upon the answer to the previous problem.

So the answer is 96.


I can get how your getting the answer. It’s just funny on everyone’s answer. And there is a few depending on how it’s looked at.

We can have a 6/12 roof tying into a gable that has a 12/12 pitch that needs to be sheared. With one measurement I can cut every 4 foot sheet with a 6/12 cut on the bottom and a 12/12 on the top, load them in the lift boom them up and install and everything fits perfect. Lots of guys need a measurement every time and then struggle on the cuts.
