Umm... If division and multiplication have priority over addition and subtraction, why would you bracket the subtraction? It's meant to be:
6-(1x0)+(2/2).
brother I feel u ent ryt ....the negative sign shld b wft d one...I.e. 6(-1*0)+(2/2)

Using BODMAS you'll get 7.

6 - 1 x 0 + 2 / 2

Division first.

2 / 2 = 1.

6 - 1 x 0 + 1

Multiplication next.

1 x 0 = 0.

6 - 0 + 1 = 7.

The answer, my friends, is 7. smiley

Modified: Please... I don't know how to some people, -0 + 1 = - 1? It doesn't.

Added a picture. Google added the rules of BODMAS before solving it... Some people are solving the equation in the order it was presented... Truly 99% get it wrong. :/

my brother that - sign is allocated to d one and not dh 6 so in essence it should b 6(-1*0)+(2/2)

Now I see why we fail Exams! Always using calculators. The answer here is "5" and Not "7".



Cc. Oga seun.
Even a primary 2 student should b abile 2 solve
this...
BODMAS
bracket of Division Multiplication Addition then
Subtraction
6-1*0+2/2 OK 6(-1*0)+(2/2) =6(0)+(2/2) =
(6*0)+(2/2) =0+(2/2) =0+1 =1 Final Answer. fun
though.
