As originally listed by @gen3v8 the answer should be 120, unless something has changed about precedence in math I'm not aware of.

I always was taught that grouping for operators is

exponentiation and root extraction
multiplication and division
addition and subtraction

Therefore "230 - 220 * .5" is actually "230 - (220 * 0.5)" which equals 120.

What am I missing?

EDIT: Turns out I am missing something. Read on if you want to find out!

Yea, I did search to verify. math operators don't work that way, again unless there is something I'm missing as I said.

Apparently 5!= 5*4*3*2*1 =120

Well,,,,yea. OK you got me. I didn't read the ! as "factorial" but as "Geez am I excited to type this here".

I blame it on almost two weeks of being unplugged from everything....

TIL that apparently snow on the roof and trunk won't help you to not get stuck in the snow. I also learned that if you have any seemingly logical thoughts about RWD in the snow, you'll be swiftly corrected and called lazy on the forums.
