12 is the answer.

Half of (8 + 8) is 8. 8+8 is 16 16/2 is 8

So sick of this couple and the stupid questions.

½ of 8 is 4 4+8 is 12

Half of 8 is 4 + 8 is 12

It depends on punctuation. Both 12 and 8 are correct. That’s why mathematical notation is more exact. 1/2(8+8)=8 (1/2*8)+8=12

The question is imbecilic. You can’t make a case about the placement of parentheses or order of operation in a written or verbal statement. It is not an arithmetic expression. FAIL

You post the question of what is 1/2 of 8+8. This is (8+8)/2=8. To be 12 it needs to be phrased what is 1/2 of 8 plus an additional 8. Setting up the math problem 1/2•8+8=12. Sentence structure matters.

12 1/2 of 8 + 8 (1/2 of 8) + 8 8/2 + 8 4 + 8 12

(8/2) + 8 = 4+8 = 12
