Can you solve it without falling for the trick?

the original expression becomes:

5 + 5 + 1

Step 2 — Perform the Addition

Now that the division is complete, we can add the remaining numbers.

First:

5 + 5 = 10

Then:

10 + 1 = 11

✅ Final Answer: 11

The correct answer is 11, not 3 or 15!

What’s the Trick?

The common mistake is performing the addition before the division.

Some people calculate:

5 + 5 + 5 = 15

Then divide:

15 ÷ 5 = 3

But this is incorrect because mathematical operations must follow the correct order. Division has priority over addition.

Therefore, the correct calculation is:

5 + 5 + 5 ÷ 5 = 11
