Wrong
The negative sign belongs to 0. You removed 0 there.

40 -0 +10 NOT 40-+10




You are still wrong. Since you solved multiplication first, addition is next. The minus is behind the 0, not in front. In front of the 0 is the addition sign with and you have to solve all addition first before subtraction. Please I’m right. If you still feel you are right, then that’s fine too.

VISTIN:
20 + 20 - 10 x 0 + 5 +5

20 + 20 - (10 x 0) + 5 + 5

40 - 0 + 5 + 5

40 + 10 = 50

Please be guided

A sign cannot belong to the no behind it

The + belongs to 10 not 0.

That expression is either -0+10 OR +10-0

The challenge with most people here is that they don't understand possession of signs by numbers in a given expression/equation

Apply bodmas.multiplication first.which is -10*0%=0
20+20+5+5=50

Don't apply only bodmas, please apply todmas, the answer will still be 30, those that get 50, what happens to that negative sign before 10
That negative sign belongs to 10
20+20-10*0+5+5

It can be rewritten as

+20 + 20 -10 x 0 + 5 +5

Every number in that line has their own signs assigned to them.

Just can't multiply 10 by 0 without carrying it's negative sign

-10 x 0 give 0

Which gives

+20 + 20 +5 + 5 = 50

Very simple calculation.
The answer is 10.
20+20=40-10=30×0=0,5+5=10.

See how you made a simple math problem look ambiguous.

20+20-10*0+5+5
=40-0+10
=40-10
=30


Olodo
40-0+10 = 30

Wonders shall never end Sha
Break it down yourself

40-0+10

40-0 = 40
40-0+10 = 40+10= 50

Two perspectives

A. 20+20 -10 X 0 + 5 +5
= 20 + 20 ( -10 x 0 ) +5 + 5
= 40 (0) + 10
= 10

B. 20+20 -10 X 0 + 5 +5
= 40 - 0 + 10
= 50

A is wrong, brackets off first.The -ve sign still affects whatever's in it.so B is the correct answer

My final answer is 10.

Multiplication carries a higher precedence order in mathematical methods than

those of u getting 50, 40, 30 and 300 as answer just ask yourself a simple question. is this an equaton? from my knowledge of mathematics u can't use bodmas to solve everything now. The questions above is not an equation at all, so don't bother yourself using BODMAS. Just use your primary school method to arrive at your answer which is equal to 10.

Answer is 30.

Bodmas

20+20-10×0+5+5

The first thing to treated is multiplication
-10×0=-0
Addition
20+20-0+5+5

40-0+10

Then bodmas again

Addition

-0+10-10

40-10=30

When you complete a mathematical number
sentence involving several different operations
then BODMAS helps you to know which order
to complete them in. Anything in Brackets
should be completed first, then the orders,
followed by any division or multiplication and
finally addition or subtraction.
Division and Multiplication have been grouped
together as they are of the same level; this
means that if you have a calculation involving
division and multiplication then you complete
them as they appear from left to right. This is
the same for addition and subtraction; they are
completed as they appear from left to right.

Simple BODMAS... Eliminate multiplication before the simple arithmetics.

10*0=0
20+20=40
5+5=10
0+40+10=50
QED

Modify :

No, the answer can't be 50 because we cannot just ignore the - sign we got from multiplying -10*0

So, this problem cannot be solved mathematically because you cannot multiply a number by a negative number
