I have seen a lot. Just because i haven't seen it doesn't mean other rules start to apply.

I'm not in need for work, btw, you couldnt afford me ;)

I just find it fascinating in your case. See Franck and Divy and those types not knowing the answer isn't surprising. They don't present as well educated, intelligent and successful.

Anyways, directly from the University of Wisconsin website:

Quote:

Chapter 0
Basic Algebra
0.1 The Laws of Algebra
...
Order of operations. Parentheses are used to indicate the order of doing the operations: in
evaluating an expression with parentheses the innermost matching pairs are evaluated rst as in
((1 + 2)2 + 5)2 = (32 + 5)2 = (9 + 5)2 = 142 = 196:
There are conventions which allow us not to write the parentheses. For example, multiplication is
done before addition
ab + c means (ab) + c and not a(b + c);
and powers are done before multiplication:
ab2c means a(b2)c and not (ab)2c:
In the absence of other rules and parentheses, the left most operations are done first...

Pete Goodman · 11-10-2011, 04:19 PM

the answer is 41

Besides what Warchild posted a few posts above, you're really expecting someone to write a + bc as a + (bc)?

The brackets should be used to help readability of more complex equations but not when it's as dead simple as above. The quote that Warchild posted from the university website sums it up well.

So say that a + bc is ambiguous is nonsensical.

Answer is 1, how many people even finished school here???

patavax · 11-11-2011, 03:21 AM

41 is the only right answer.

It goes like this: 40 + 40 x 0 + 1= ?
You have to follow the math rules for order of operations.
the first order of operation is 40x0 = 0

40 + (40X0) + 1=
40 + 0 + 1 = 41

40 + 40 = 80, times 0 = 80, +1 = 81.

So....81?

Maybe you don't know there is two different scales in use. Long scale and short scale. Most of the English speaking world uses the short scale where there is indeed 1,000 million in 1 billion.

Are you really serious???

You can't do it step by step cause you have to follow math rules for order of operations!
These rules are basic in maths! That means it's about the same of knowing figures 0,1,2,3,4,5,6,7,8,9,... and X,:,+ and -. So if you don't know these basics, you will fail!

The only way to do it is:
40 + (40X0=0) + 1= 41

BTW: here are the rules for order of operations:

Rule 1: First perform any calculations inside parentheses.
Rule 2: Next perform all multiplications and divisions, working from left to right.
Rule 3: Lastly, perform all additions and subtractions, working from left to right.

no way we can quit with this thing so close to page 9 lets go!!!

patavax · 11-11-2011, 11:37 AM

Here's another example:
3 + 6 x (5 + 4) ÷ 3 - 7 = ?

Solution:
Step 1: 3 + 6 x (5 + 4) ÷ 3 - 7 = 3 + 6 x 9 ÷ 3 - 7 Parentheses
Step 2: 3 + 6 x 9 ÷ 3 - 7 = 3 + 54 ÷ 3 - 7 Multiplication
Step 3: 3 + 54 ÷ 3 - 7 = 3 + 18 - 7 Division
Step 4: 3 + 18 - 7 = 21 - 7 Addition
Step 5: 21 - 7 = 14 Subtraction

Solution = 14.

Easy!
