@KOcheckmate It is 16. Explained in #20. Plugging it into a calculator brings the same value as well.
@A_0123456 what about 19? Its explained like a god level.
1 or 16 ¯\_(ツ)_/¯
@A_0123456 I just mentioned it was the fraction symbol... if you want to convert it to a math equation: 8/(2(2+2))
@Ak888 https://lichess.org/forum/off-topic-discussion/ip-episode-6-a-new-hopeless?page=3#25 I've dealt with more complex stuff.

Edit: foot + mouth
Nothing confusing here, this is quite an old viral question...
It depends on what rule you use, the standard procedure is using BODMAS, PEMDAS is ancient and obsolete I guess cause I studied only BODMAS.
BODMAS: Brackets, Orders, Division, Multiplication, Addition, Subtraction
PEMDAS: Parentheses, Exponents, Multiplication, Division, Addition, Subtraction
If one follows BODMAS rule, the final answer you get is 16, if you follow PEMDAS rule the final answer you get is 1.
PEMDAS is ancient @KOcheckmate so 16 would be correct in modern Mathematics .

andddd now I only have 1 brain cell left ;-;. Why you do this to me :(
Well since 1*0 = 2*0, 1 = 2.
Keep dividing both sides by 2.
2 = 1
1 = 1/2
1/2 = 1/4
1/4 = 1/8
Therefore, 2 = 1/8
8/2(2+2) = 8/2(1/8+1/8) then
8/2(2/8) = 8/2(1/4) = 8/2*1/4 = 4*1/4 = 1.
Therefore: 8/2(2+2) = 1
@KOcheckmate I have proven you right through clearly not fallacious proof.
Another explanation: 8/2(2+2) = 1 because @Komokid exists. Simple.
