PokerPacker Posted June 15, 2011 Share Posted June 15, 2011 14. 1x0 comes first, removing that from the equation. and its not 16 because there's a subtraction sign hidden in there. :yawnee: I've grown weary of these math questions designed to attempt to trick people.

spjunkies Posted June 15, 2011 Share Posted June 15, 2011 I'm probably wrong because I suck ass at math, but I'm pretty sure the answer is 0. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SkinnedAussie Posted June 15, 2011 Share Posted June 15, 2011 Adding all of the ones equal 10, then there is a subtraction, so that comes back to 9, then add six more ones to equal 15. 15 x 0 = 0. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
techboy Posted June 15, 2011 Share Posted June 15, 2011 Order of operations, multiplication first. The rest adds up to 14, though the minus sign is easy to miss, so if you assume it's all addition, it's 16. 14 is the correct answer. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
