    Re: 40+40x0+1= (over 40,000 people looking awfully dumb on facebook)

    Like many, I initially thought it was 1, then I remembered order of operations.

        41

        You do 40 x 0 first which gets you zero. So it's 40 + 0 + 1 = 41.

        To get 1 it would have to be (40+40) x 0 + 1

            I too thought it was 1 but I suck big time at math. Is it wrong of me that when you say a pint I think of this?
            I've heard this "patience is a virtue" junk all my life. I'm happy to say I have no virtue, no scruples, and no desire to wait too long for anything. In my humble opinion instant gratification takes too long!

                        Order of operations is stupid, I hate it and I hate that I answered 1.

                        I hate that I'm stupid.

                        If there were parentheses there I would have gotten it right, though. That's one thing that stuck with me.

                        Please

                        There's so many rules in math that I forget them or get them confused.
