Here's one I've only ever gotten one satisfactory answer to:

If a tree falls in the forest and nobody's around to hear it, does it make a sound?
The tree will not make a sound unless an animal with working ears is around to convert the vibrations in the air into what is properly determined to be "sound".
It isn't sound until it enters an ear and is converted into such an experience.
But sound is still yet to be written out as to if it means, vibration or when its received by an ear.

is 28/2(9+3)=2 or 288?

best I could come up with
Neither. It's 168.
Parentheses first: 9+3=12
Division & Multiplication in order: 28/2=14, 14(12)=168.
You have to times out the brackets first...

28/2(9+3)

28/2(12)

28/24

=7/6 or 1.166666666666666666666666666666666666666666666666666666666666666666666666...

No, Kakulukia's right. You have to divide before you multiply so:
Brackets: 9+3=12
Division: 28/2=14
Multiplication: 14x12=168

Think of it like this if it helps (28/2)(9+3)=168

Why am I the greatest person in the history of the universe?
Because that Narcissitic bastard in your head told you that you weren't, AND YOU PROVED HIM WRONG!
Incorrect: The sound understood as the colliding of different molecules in the space in forms of waves exists with or without any animal or person that receives that information in their ears. So yes, the tree makes a sound even if noone is around to hear it.
