Well, this McDonald’s brain teaser has really stumped thousands of you over the past few days!
We’ve received a whole bunch of different answers for this one, and every single person is absolutely convinced that their answer is the right one.
Just keep in mind that when it comes to the order of operations in math, specifically the rule of BODMAS (Brackets, Orders, Division and Multiplication, Addition and Subtraction), multiplication is always done first.
Here’s how it breaks down:
We know that 1 drink is equal to 10.
1 burger is equal to 5.
And just 1 order of fries is equal to 1.
So, when we look at the equation 5 + 1 * 10, we need to follow the order of operations. First, we do the multiplication: 1 * 10 equals 10. Then we do the addition: 5 + 10 equals 15.
Therefore, the answer is 15.
