0 * 6 is not 6
that would mean:
(1 * 6) = (0 * 6)
anything multiplied by zero is impossible
the correct answer is -30, because you do the * first and the - second

OMG!
And you call yourself Internet Marketers
you don't know what 6-6*6 is?
Real AnsweR:
(6)-(6)(6)
6 - 36
= -30

That's because they are three different questions.

Lol wtf.. I'm viewing results and how stupid you can be. It's 3rd grade math.
First you multiply and divide and then you do other stuff:
6-6*6
6-(6*6)
6-36 = -30
First you multiply and divide and then you do other stuff:
6-6*6
6-(6*6)
6-36 = -30

You have not to format anything, you have to solve 6-6*6 = 6-36 = -30.
If you reformat the calculation you change it, those are three different calculations, not the same.

Really funny. On a first sight, this "mathematical" questions translates to me to
- how old are you (many people here are underage - they should answer perfectly, right?)
- what is your highest degree? (in arising order: 1.st class internet marketer, high-school, college, university)?

"Keep away from people who try to belittle your ambitions. Small people always do that, but the really great make you feel that you, too, can become great."
Sure you can divide by zero. Get 5 apples, divide them amongst 0 people and see with how many apples you are left with. Also see if the universe ends ("cannot" is such a scary word for mathematicians).
The reason we are forced to say that such a division is impossible is because otherwise the equation 1*0 = 0 would become absurd. If 1*0 = 0 then 0/0 will have to be = 1. So we take the easy way out and instead of pursuing the unknown correct answer we simply say 'you can't divide by zero' even though it's just not true.
In the OPs question, the answer is indeed 0 if operator precedency is not taken into account and - 30 if it is. Simply assuming you must use operator precedency is plain stupid as it was never mentioned as a condition. And in a real world situation if you get 6 apples then another 6 multiplied by 6 and take out 6 you end up with indeed 30 apples, not -30 and not 0.
So it is all about context and the more exact conditions you set, the more useful the answer becomes. This comes from a coder
You are SCARY!!

As somebody said, those are 3 different problems.
If there are no brackets to begin with, YOU have to separate them in terms.
Damn.. answer is -30.
This is just get really funny lol.

6 - 6 = 13
6 * 6 = -22
therefore
6-6*6 = 54
the answer is 54.
6 * 6 = -22
therefore
6-6*6 = 54
the answer is 54.
