You didn't enter the equation correctly on your calculator then.

Is this the reverse sheep quiz I've heard so much about?

40 + 40  x 0 + 1 = 1.

I have done this on 2 different calculators and both come out at 1.

This is because you are typing them into your calculator in the wrong order.

The multiplication must be calculated first and 40 X 0 = 0.  Then add 40 = 40.  Then add 1 = 41. 

Simples.

Did you actually bother to read the rest of the thread or have you just decided that you are correct and nothing anyone could say is going to change that?

A fool with a tool (or this case a calculator) is still a fool.  QED.

i dont want to get involved upsetting someone  who is relatively new to blonde but the answer to the question is as obvious to us as 1+1 = 2 to you. its basic maths and just demonstrates the lack of education people  have in this country and you can watch em all day on jezza kyle Smiley
