OpenStudy (anonymous):

okay thanks

OpenStudy (poopsiedoodle):

might wanna get someone to make sure though.

OpenStudy (poopsiedoodle):

this is division.

OpenStudy (anonymous):

4(y^3)

OpenStudy (poopsiedoodle):

OpenStudy (poopsiedoodle):

oh. I guess I was ALMOST right.

OpenStudy (poopsiedoodle):

yes, ari. :p

OpenStudy (anonymous):

OpenStudy (poopsiedoodle):

no.

OpenStudy (anonymous):

4 remains at its position
