(1+1+1+1+11+1+1+1+11+1)*(0+1)
=30 * 1 = 30
Others solve it as
30*0+1 =0+1 =1
A few did not noticed there are two 11 digits and calculated it as
1+1+1+1+1+1+1+1+1+1+1+1*0+1 = 12 *0+1 =12 * 1 = 12
I have always hated mathematics
Lol

you must nt have bracket, off, division, to apply BODMAS.

If we add everything that comes first and multiply by Zero the answer will be 0+1=1 which could have been right if their wasn't 11 and since we have 11 twice the answer is 30 multiplication b4 addition.


Huh!!!
But 11+11+1+1+1+1+1+1+1+1+1+1+1+1+1+1+1...× 0= 0...a resounding 0...zero +1=1

Smart...except...12×0+1=1
Breaking it down
12×0=0
0+1=1...almighty 1

The answer is:



Congrats Gaddafithe2nd, you're obviously the first among the 10%. You should be answering Gaddafithe1st and not the 2nd grin

First off, an equation always has two parts separated by the equals sign. That's the basic property of all equations.

There is only one equation from the question. The other two that seem like equations are mere what I'd call an 'incomplete mathematical expression'.

2 would be my answer.

Get someone...anyone...even the dumbest bdullard to call out the members one after the other for you while you calculate...tell me your answer...

Champagne on me for all who think one is the right answer...

By doing so u will have a resounding 0, i get ur point and Zero plus 1 is 1 bt if u do multiplication first according to BODMAS you will have 30.

*winks*.

Lolz, go back to the question, this time, slowly.

1+1+1+1+(1

1)+1+1+1+(1

1)+1*0+1 = 30

1+1+1+1+(11)+1+1+1+(11)+1*0+1


Check where I fixed brackets, there are no plus sign between the "1"s.
Ehen, its not our fault na. It should be a bonus answer for their obvious typographical error. Is that the standard way of writing eleven?

I guess...too much high level maths make us forget the very basic primary ones
So let's do it like this:
1
+1
+1
+1
+11
+1
+1
+11
+1
+1
×0
+1 = ?

Tell me what you come up with...
Its simple market style maths... Basic simple and crude.

I want to believe you're kidding when you come up with 30,12 or 11 as answers.

Lolz, it is not a typographical error.

It was done on purpose, another way of writing 1 is 2/2.
Re: Can You Solve This? by Felvet(f): 10:56pm On Apr 13, 2016
1+1+1+1 = 4+11 = (15) 1+1+1 = 3+11 = (14) 1*0+1 = (1) 15+14+1 = 30

If its 2/2 will anybody complain? That one is staright foward na. This one is a typo biko

We were always told by exam invigilators to ignore any question with a typo that made the question to have multiple possible answers. For anybody to attempt the question is the first test of his knowledge. Then that person will be given an outright bad.

Its 12...

Simply bodmas
Re: Can You Solve This? by Yaboski: 11:01pm On Apr 13, 2016
The ans is 1 becouse 12 x 0 = 0 + 1 gives u 1

I never said the answer is 12 or 11 don't quote me wrongly.

I said is either 30 or 1 base on the crude market women method u will have 1 as the answer bt if ur to sit 4 post ume use BODMAS and ur answer will be 30.

Is this difficult to comprehend?, we are on the same page i guess.

Bros the answer can't be 1. Na 30 rest e.
0 x 1 gives u 0. 0 + 30 go give you 1?

So, where is d typo in the question?

He was about writing eleven and space finished on the 1st line and he moved to the 2nd line.


Remember, this is mathematics not english.

There is no special constructions in maths, u just have to look well so that u will see everything there is to see.

-2*4/-(-2) can be written in so many ways that can confuse u, and that is the idea, "to confuse u"

Hmm...that depends largely on the page you're looking at...
See,I don't get why the break at every 11 for a first sum. Why not run it all through Till the zero;
This is what I mean:
1+1+1+1+11+1+1+1+11+1=30×0+1=1, instead of:
1+1+1+1+11=15
1+1+1+11=14
1×0=0
+1=15+14+0+1=30!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!what process??!! I don't think bodmas works that way...plus maths is supposed to simplify issues, that's why there are maths problems and solutions.
If you're here, then we're on the same page.
Re: Can You Solve This? by ubanDoma1(m): 11:36pm On Apr 13, 2016
The answer is 1 , because any number multiple by 0 is 0 . So 0 + 1 = 1

Re: Can You Solve This? by Tesley: 11:38pm On Apr 13, 2016
Maybe by the straight line style arriving at 30×0+1, some folks will arrive at 31

Those created that bracket did it @ their own peril, there was no bracket in the question, thus, u don't have to solve for brackets 1st, u have to solve accordingly, start with where u saw "multiplication" 1st.



It is funny though
