      If you presented work that was written that way,you are right. You would never work for me.
      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 ;)

          So is that a no?

            If I want to be arrogant,there are plenty of other things that I can be arrogant about. Taking a posture on a math gag I learned in the beginning of my career isn't even on the list.

            Madison is in Wisconsin. I went to school at the UW-Madison.
            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:

            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...

                In the perfect world, the equation itself should be written like this: 40 X 0 + 40 + 1 =

                    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.

                                        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

                                                          Now i'm a complete idiot when it comes to maths but i thought this was simple. But then i saw people replying with 4 different answers. And ofcourse every person says he/she is right.

                                                          I know gfy is full of Einsteins so please tell me the right answer.
                                                          my caculator gives '1' as the correct answer... any number multiplied by '0' the answer is '0'

                                                                                          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!

Obviously there has been a discussion on the issue and even if I were a million percent sure I'd read the thread before looking like an idiot at that point. I mean, unless someone was streaming live and died while doing the math problem while fingering themselves why else would we be on page 8?
