I posted this elsewhere and have varied responses to what the answer would be. What do you think is the correct answer? Starting to doubt my own 'answer', but maths was never a strong point with me lol:
5 + 5 + 5 - 5 + 5 + 5 - 5 + 5 x 0 = ?
You do the maths

OK I'll change my answer to 15 after checking with a calculator!!!!!!
I'm thick and yes had forgotten my BODMAS.

On an unrelated note, I only just found this out today, when someone posted it on FB.

You know he grew up as a little shitspark from the old shitflint and then he turned into a shitbonfire and driven by the winds of his monumental ignorance he turned into a raging shitfirestorm. If I get to be married to Barb I'll have total control of Sunnyvale and then I can unleash the shitnami tidal wave that will engulf Ricky and extinguish his shitflames forever. And with any luck he'll drown in the undershit of that wave. Shitwaves.

If nature always takes the easiest route, what's easier...?
The creation of billions of galaxies each containing trillions of stars each with their own solar systems, some with planets that have evolved civilisations with billions of different life forms. OR The creation of just your imagination?
Re: You do the maths
Hmmm.... nobody learn BODMAS at school?

Yes, which is why I ended up with 15.Originally Posted by coin-op
Re: You do the maths
0.
Nothing to do with BODMAS at all. One step before that - basic multiplication!
Anything multiplied by 0 is zero.
Re: You do the maths
it is 0 anything times 0 is 0
lol posted same time as above
Re: You do the maths
You do the multiplying before the addition and substraction.
Re: You do the maths
Hmmmm i must be thick because i get 20 before it's multipled by zero, so my maths tell me if i have 20 and i multiply it by nothing it's still 20, i had 20 to start with so how can multiplying it by zero make it 0? it was multiplied not subtracted.
EDIT Rhinoz just explained it, i got A levels in English not maths lol
Re: You do the maths
5 + 5 + 5 - 5 + 5 + 5 - 5 + 5 x 0 = 15
(5 + 5 + 5 - 5 + 5 + 5 - 5 + 5) x 0 = 0

Re: You do the maths
Well it is, some folks can't get the order of the maths, BODMAS would show that you do M before any A or S, so you would get zero.
Re: You do the maths
15
Re: You do the maths
20 x 0 is 0

Re: You do the maths
5 + 5 + 5 - 5 + 5 + 5 - 5 + 5 x 0 = 15
Because it should be processed as
5 + 5 + 5 - 5 + 5 + 5 - 5 + (5 x 0) = 15

Re: You do the maths
0 x 0=020 x 0 is 0
20 x 0=20
At least it does in my head
Thanks fuck for calculators!
