Maybe they haven't learned or aren't being learned the PEMDAS rules- Order of Operation.

So, to solve the "riddle" (which isn't one, actually):


7!! = 1*3*5*7 = 105


"Doppelfakultät" in German.

Indeed !! :D

(196-182)*0.5 = 7

196-(182*0.5) = 105

But if you type directly on the calculator: 196-182*0.5 = 7

All of that is very true which goes to show that
196 - 182*0.5 does indeed equal 7!!
