40+40=80x0=0+1=1

But I think you have to do multiplication first so it’ll be 40*0 = 0
Then the additions 0+40+1 = 41
As you do not go in the order it’s written you follow the BODMAS order (division first, multiplication second, addition third, subtraction last). It’s like how 8+2÷2 = 9 and not 5

When long sums have no brackets to tell you the order you are meant to follow the BODMAS rules

BODMAS also sounds like Dumbass
