In certain regions, PEMDAS (Parentheses, Exponents, Multiplication, Division, Addition and Subtraction) is the synonym of BODMAS. It explains the order of operations to solve an expression. Some mathematical puzzles require top to bottom convention to avoid the ambiguity in the order of operations.
Socratic questioning (or Socratic maieutics) [1] is an educational method named after Socrates that focuses on discovering answers by asking questions of students. According to Plato, Socrates believed that "the disciplined practice of thoughtful questioning enables the scholar/student to examine ideas and be able to determine the validity of those ideas". [2]

The Riemann Hypothesis. Today’s mathematicians would probably agree that the Riemann Hypothesis is the most significant open problem in all of math. It’s one of the seven Millennium Prize ...
Instead of arriving at answers, the method breaks down the theories we hold, to go "beyond" the axioms and postulates we take for granted. Therefore, myth and the Socratic method are not meant by Plato to be incompatible; they have different purposes, and are often described as the "left hand" and "right hand" paths to good and wisdom.
Advice, Practice, Licence etc. (those with c) are nouns and Advise, Practise, License etc. are verbs. One way of remembering this is that the word ' n oun' comes before the word ' v erb' in the dictionary; likewise ' c' comes before ' s' , so the n ouns are 'practi c e, licen c e, advi c e' and the v erbs are 'practi s e, licen s e, advi s e'.

Problems ask for either the initial or terminal quantity. Stated or implied is the smallest positive number that could be a solution. There are two unknowns in such problems, the initial number and the terminal number, but only one equation which is an algebraic reduction of an expression for the relation between them.
