40 + 40 x 0 + 1= ?

[Roald]

So i just saw this on Facebook.

Now i'm a complete idiot when it comes to maths but i thought this was simple. But then i saw people replying with 4 different answers. And ofcourse every person says he/she is right.

I know FreeOnes is full of Einsteins so please tell me the right answer :stir:

Change it to (40 + 40) x 0 + 1
Now that equals 1.

:hatsoff:

I always thought 40 + 40 = 80 + 1 = 81.
