So what's the answer then?
somewhere between 40 and 42.......
So what's the answer then?
Apparently the brackets don't necessarily have to be present in this instance oracula, but I'm not certain. Not a mathematician me like.
For primary school kids the answer would = 1
Anyone over the age of 11 should know the answer = 41
Just to clarify then ..
You Dont NEED Brackets to signify Brackets , AN YOU CAN CHOOSE which Factor ; Plus , Divided By , Multiply etc YOU LIKE BEST !!!
Thus ; IGNORE 40 + 40 AN INSTEAD FOCUS UPON 40 + 40 X 0 ..
Nice ...
Latest news is that after today's developments the answer has been decided as part of a ceasefire agreement between teams 41 and 81 to be 61.
This agreement was reached after Prof Chico and Dr Degs Phd discovered the principles of duplicity in Pure and Applied Mathematics whereby multiplication by zero of the second occurrence of a number in a calculation actual resolves itself as a division by 2. The original question therefore becomes (using BODMAS as previously noted) 40 + 40/2 + 1 giving an answer of 61.
Those wishing to join team 61 please make yourselves known.
so we all settled on 1 being the correct answer.... numero uno.... ein, un, uno..............is right lids....
