Question

1+9+40-40+40+10x2 equals what?

Answer 1

70

Explanation:

1+9+40-40+40+10*2

----------------------- 20

10+40-40+40+20

50 (-40+40 cancels out to 0) +20

50+20= 70

(Following PEMDAS)

Multiply, add, subtract.

if you were to instead go through it left to right, you would get 120, which is incorrect.
