Amazingly this needs to be merged
1+1+1+1+1+1+1+1+1+1-1+1+1+1+1+1+1x0 =?
And the answer is "if you're too lazy to include some parentheses to indicate the order of calculation then I don't have time for you"
If you're past the 5th grade order of operations is entirely useless

I thought the answer to everything is "42." Yet, I don't see that as an option, so I don't know what to do.
God, this is a confusing world we live in.

There is no right answer...I would need to see the calculations that lead up to this result so I can figure out where you deleted the parentheses
No math problem ever resulted in a bunch of one-digit integers connected by arithmetic signs

Even a taco would know to conserve the order of calculations as they go

Not sure if serious. Regardless if there are parenthesis or not, multiplication is before addition.

And people wonder why Bush famously asked, "is our children learning?" Apparently not.
