    it is, in fact, one. You can't anticipate where the brackets would be.

    (6 - 1) X (0 + 2 / 2)=? 5(1)=6

    6(-1*0)+(2/2)= 6(0)+1=1

    (6-1)*(0)+(2/2)=1

    Without parentheses, you must follow the order of operations. Parentheses can denote where you would deviate from this standard, but without them, Doug is absolutely correct. Open up the calculator on your computer and try it!

    FWIW when I first read the question I thought 8 as well. I read Doug's response and was like "NO, NO!" Then I saw it was indeed 7.

    It happens.

    By the way google does math. Just type equations in google search engine and the answer will come right up. https://www.google.com/search?q=6+-+...hrome&ie=UTF-8

    That's an easy one.

    7 x 13 = ?

    7/13 * 13/13 = ?/13

    7/13 * 1 = ?/13

    7/13 = ?/13

    ? = 7

    It was my understanding that there would be no math.

    Nope, the answer is 28.
