When figuring the coordinates for the final city, shouldn't (D-C+E) = -9 according to PEMDAS?

On September 16, 2022 at 1:04PM EST EMC2 responded to Caroline:

That actually all looks right to me. Just make sure you're doing the math right to calculate the final city.

Uhm my cords were wrong, can anyone tell me where i messed up? A-3 B-46 C-8 D-10 E-11

For anyone, like me, who really struggled with D, the answer is 10. I only know from trial and error with multiples of 5. Google wasn’t helpful.

Yall I'm really struggling. I'm sure I did all the math right (rounding for D÷5+A), sure I got the correct numbers (though I did need to Google for D), yet the city I got isn't correct.

Hi - having real trouble finding number for C because i can’t find a figure for Sydney Opera house sails divisible by 5!!

Help. No city. 3, 50, 8, tried 10 and 15, 11

D is incorrect. I made the same mistake and was a bit confused. Google's autofill gave me a number to work with, and that led me to the correct answer.

I think I may have missed one of the numbers. The final city coordinates didn’t work in map search. Can someone help me get on track with the one of these I may have gotten wrong?

A=3, B=46, C=8, D=14, E=11

On January 10, 2022 at 10:28PM EST Magic40 responded to MarTeeny:

Take a look at how the numbers are used. Two of them are divided by integers. Their position in the final coordinates require an integer, so those numbers need to be a multiple of their divisors.

You have everything correct except for D.

We thought we were doing it right, it seemed easy, and yet after double checking everything somehow we aren't getting the right coordinates. Please check and confirm which of these numbers is wrong?

A = 3, B = 46, C = 8, D = 20, E = 11

Are you sure you typed it in right? The coordinates in C point to the Forbidden City in Beijing

I cant find the landmark written in section c. it doesn't point to anywhere specific in Beijing?

I "reverse engineered" the coordinates; four of the questions gave me a pretty good idea of the landmarks at those points, so I Googled them and matched the geolocations to within seconds, confirming my guesses. On only the first one did I search on the coordinates.

Is there an error in the coordinates listed for D? That location is open ocean. I wonder, did M intend to give 33° 51' 22.17'' S, 151° 12' 54.92'' E?

This wasn’t even a puzzle. It was just work! (Still fun.)
