the answer is people should learn to use parentheses for clarity, so that simple math isn't some sneak attack on sense.

That said, 14.

Please excuse my dear Aunt Sally.

Since when is the order of operations thread-worthy?

If the poll responses are serious, right now it looks like we have almost 50 % idiots answering the question.

This poll is actually going to be funny, it should have been public. I am pretty sure I learned PEMDAS in elementary school.

I saw 10 minus 6 = 4. Last one is zeroed out before anything else, then you separately add up the ten ones on left side of the minus and the six ones on the other side of minus; so ten minus six is four. Unless there's some left-to-right primacy with adding and subtracting that I'm ignoring.

Order of operations and left to right when adding/subtracting or dividing/multiplying.

14 folks!

Multiply the 1 to 0 (end result 0).
Do addition and subtraction of all the 1s left over from LEFT TO RIGHT.
14

LOL! Seeing how 4 isn't even an answer choice (as it should not be), there are definitely some elementary rules of math that you are not applying....

If somebody thought that you work solely from left to right, taking the sum into account prior to each new number, they would come up with 15 x 0 = 0 at the end. It's not right... but that's how they would get there.
