No matter, I'm not bothered. I only look in very occasionally.

For what it is worth. I have never blocked you or anyone else. You clearly provided the better (read: detailed answer) but Justin pipped you to the post.

BTW, if you are referring to the song, I thought that "who let the dogs out" was the call from a woman that was criticising the "sexist" guys at the party in question. If so, then surely the guys in question let themselves out?

Although @Pat ex knew the answer, @Justin Passing guessed the correct answer. The answer I was looking for was "his wife", rather than the actual name of the person. On reflection, yeah, I guess that I could have been clearer.

By virtue of the fact that I was replying to Justin's post, I thought it obvious that I was replying to Justin and not Pat (apologies to Pat).

Thanks for clearing that up.

I think we need a question. I don't care who from. If I can think of something that's not too easy or obscure I'll post it

What is 11+7x4-15+78+4-20x3+6

There's only one correct answer tgat I am accepting.

363

363

No
Oh, and could everyone show their workings please.

p.s. It’s a real basic sum!

What is 11+7x4-15+78+4-20x3+6

There's only one correct answer tgat I am accepting.

11+7 =18
18*4 =72
72-15 =57
57+78 =135
135+4 =139
139 -20 = 119
119*3 = 357
357+6 = 363

Unless you start using PEMDAS. The you do the multiplication first, then the division, then addition and then the subtraction, but I can't be bothered.

OK, here you go 11+(7x4)-15+78+4-(20x3)+6

Ain't no-one done it yet?

11 +(28) -15 +(78+4) - (60+6)
(39)-15 + (82) - (66)
(39) - 15 +(16)
39 +1
40

Correct answer.

Pat ex showed the workings but didn't give the answer.

You share the honours so any of you can go next.

 

[Justin Passing]

-20x3+6
@Pat ex That's -60 + 6, not -66

 

[Justin Passing]

11+7x4-15+78+4-20x3+6
11 +28 -15 +78 +4 -60 +6
52.
