Where does the debate come from? I'm confused. What is it people are unsure of?

Globul · 10 Nov 2011 at 20:01

41, BODMAS rules all math

though on face book people forget and chose 1!

You guys should have just used to some odd base to troll the OP.

Wouldn't work unfortunately would still be 41 even in base 5.

What do you mean? Using different moduli?

Such as 2 in Base 2 is 10...

You forget that people like the girl from The Only Way Is Essex who was on Never Mind The Buzzcocks exist.

Words quite fail me.

Of course but it might take him a while to work out

Just incase the OP still isn't sure, it's 41.

I assume some people would do it in order and end up with 1

Points for getting it right, but -100 points for saying "math" :rolleyes:

So the answer is 29 then.

Not in binary.

41 - Seriously are people really that dumb?!

I am bad at maths. I thought it was 1, and still don't understand why it's not.

Most importantly, I don't actually care why it isn't 1.

+1 tbh. All you people saying, 'How can you be that dumb?!' (whilst, I assume, masturbating furiously at your own smug intellect), it obviously isn't that simple, some people aren't that good at maths and would go through it step by step.

And with my basic understanding of maths, shouldn't it be 40+(40x0)+1 or something to get 41 as the answer?

RDM · 10 Nov 2011 at 20:16

It is obviously 80!

Exactly, mathematics. You can't have a single 'mathematic'
