Seriously, needed paper, but it took less than a minute to work out. An you dont need to find 45^2. Do the 26+19 first, and you'll see that the parenthetical section is 45*45/45, which, obviously, is 45. Then the rest is literally third grade math.
But that only works if you know what ^2 means. If it had been taught by that time then the rest really is basics. And I am not quite certain if kids learn it by fifth grade (Finnish kids start school year later than US kids) because I seem to think it something I was taught on seventh grade or something like that.
No matter what happens, no matter what my last words may end up being, I want everyone to claim that they were:
"If you strike me down, I shall become more powerful than you could possibly imagine."
Aww, you guys rock. :)  I feel the love... and the pitchforks and torches.  Tingly!

It looks a little intimidating but it's honestly not that hard.

I'm pretty sure my classmates and I knew what ² meant by fifth grade, let alone sixth (that's age 10 and age 11, more or less).

And any system where arithmetic up to squaring isn't basic math has failed its students.

But math is scary! And hard!

Being required by someone else’s religious beliefs to behave contrary to one’s sexual identity is degrading and disrespectful.

Cain said: Truly I am Mahan, the master of this great secret, that I may murder and get gain. Wherefore Cain was called Master Mahan,
and he gloried in his wickedness.

That's basically Scandinavia and the World. It's nice to see the stereotypes are consistent.

I've rarely ever seen anyone so fixated on a single meme.

Back on topic.
