Opps I actually worked that out wrong
BODMAS - (Brackets OF Division / Multiplication, Addition / Subtraction).
You work left to right with the DM, AS
So
6-1X0+2/2 =
6 - Left + right
6 - (1 X 0)+ (2/ 2) = 6 - 0 + 1
= 7.
*rolls eyes* bad bad bad teacher.

To be fair, any online calculator will do it, so unless you're showing the workings out you used, chances are you googled (online calculator) and put the answer in.

Nah, Bet Bob just started this thread cos' he's sick of all the political posting. Bit hard to make a political statement from this thread but who knows - the usual suspects manage to on other threads all the time.;-)
Are you having a break from the religious discussions, Bob?

BODMAS (Brackets of DIVISION, MULTIPLICATION, ADDITION and SUBTRACTION) - in that order.
6 - 1 X 0 + (2 / 2) = 6 - 1 X 0 + 1
6 - (1 X 0) + 1 = 6 - 0 + 1
6 - (0 + 1 ) = 6 - 1
6 - 1 = 5
you have already used the 0, can you use it again??

If you have to google, you obvious can't do it or don't trust yourself enough to it. You know who you are.
