the question was on a late night phone in quiz and very few got it right so well done to those who got 63

63
Here's how you do it:
1. The division is done first. Dividing by a half is the same as multiplying by 2. So 30 x 2 =60.
2. Then you add the three.
63.

If you are expressing a fraction as a denominator, it adds up to an error, because that is not an actual mathematical expression. If, however, you are expressing this as 30 divided by one half, then the answer work out to 63 by the order of operations.

when you divide a fraction you invert and multiply.
so 30 / 1/2 is actually 30 * 2/1 which gives you 60.
60 + 3 = 63
