@Joram, LOL! When the thread started I also thought the answer was obvious (and I also thought `I knew`). A few replies later I was shifting camps like a Kenyan politician in 1997. More replies streamed in and then I was like a judge bombarded and DOS-ed with so much legalese and Latin that he can no longer conclusively rule which is his left hand and which is his right hand. And now you ask whether BODMAS operations are applied left-to-right or right-to-left; my only reply is `na left ndio pande gani` !

I think we can vote this the best thread of 2010......
I dont even want to start calculating
Someone remind me, with the bodmas rule do you calculate left to right or right to left?
Eg when you have 8-4-4 which substraction do you do first the (4-4) or the (8-4)
Im also confused. Seems degrees just make us dumber and not sharper....a lot of it depends starts to show up in discussions. Come to think of it maybe politicians invented maths to confuse the masses

What KTN was asking for was you ADD ALL THE NUMBERS ON THE BOARD (it was was something like a brain teaser). You add them all up and you will get the 120.
