    However you calculate it, it's 0.

    Thanks fuck for calculators!
    Umm lets see we have 0 then times that by 20 it is still 0 - twenty nothings is nothing . . . . .

    If you had 1 and times that by 20 then you would have 20

    You guys are making this real complicated the question was
    5 + 5 + 5 - 5 + 5 + 5 - 5 + 5 x 0 = ?
    The answer is 0

    Yes but i had 20 at the end of the sum, and in my head if you have 20, and times it by zero you still got 20, if on the other hand you have zero and times that by 20, then yes i can see that is still zero

    I'm off out for a pint lol

    No you are wrong how can anything times 0 be anything other than 0?

    Just banged it into my calculator to check and it agrees with me

    That's because it only works one part out every time and not the sum as a whole. I agree anything multipled by zero is zero but as a whole equation it's 15.

    BODMAS I guess is more common BEDMAS is a more US term Brackets, Exponents, Division, Multiplication, Addition, Subtraction - pretty basic algebra

    Uk version Brackets, Of , Division, Multiplication, Addition, Subtraction

    Pretty sure you would have been taught that if you had done any proper degree ;o)
