Who was your math teacher? Parenthesis would indicate you do that part of the math problem first. Since it does lack parenthesis you start at the beginning of the equation and work your way through. If it were to do (2+1) +(1+1) x 0 You would work from inside the parenthesis then multiply the answer to finish the equation. But the answer to my example would still ofc be 0. Or I just googled it and he could be right and I have been taught the wrong math my entire life? Good. I was always taught that anything ending in 0 would = 0. Or that if 0 was in an equation with n o parenthesis it would =0.

PEMDAS
Learn it. Parentheses, exponents, multiplication/division, addition/subtraction
The answer is 26.
