... and until his over-enthusiastic gardening injury heals sufficiently ... it ain't getting much better. I've tried RICE (minus the Elevation part) - and various other approaches...feels like back is being torn to f**k I understand. when I was a military paratrooper I moved a disk (L5S1) and it was agony ... sitting, lying, standing, always. the sciatic nerve was super compressed and I had to do the surgery. at the time there were not many other solutions (1994). before the surgery I went on to Nimesulide but it didn't last long. after the surgery, practically immediately, the pain disappeared and it returned, only slightly, when I did a couple of bullshit. The thing to understand is the origin of the pain ... it can also be just muscular. I hope you get well very very soon 👍

You're reasoning is correct, but you have to know that division/multiplication goes before addition/subtraction. That will give you: (2+1)+1x7=10. I only noticed just after posting my first answer, 25, the change in the bananas. That made me to have a second look at all the pictures and notice that there were slight changes in time, amount of chips and bananas. I still don't get it, because if you break that down: (2+1)=3, 3+1=4, 4x7=28. How do you get to 10, other than by just adding the figures up? The problem is you're going from left to right. Multiplication always happens before addition, unless parentheses are used to signify differently, so you'd have 2+1+1*7=2+1+7=10. For example, if you use parentheses you'd get (2+1+1)*7=(4)*7=28

If the answer is a person, do you just want the person's name, or what the connection is as well?

If the answer is a person, do you just want the person's name, or what the connection is as well? i think that - where the answer is a person, then the name alone would be good enough. after all, if you know who, then you know why...unless it's just a random guess.
