Some equations may appear simple, but they often conceal traps related to the order of operations. A hasty reading can easily lead to mistakes, especially when multiplications are mixed with additions and subtractions.
Additionally, it is often said that the level of mathematics is declining in France. This type of challenge is an excellent opportunity to review the basics, strengthen your reflexes, and make progress in this discipline.
As Isaac Newton once said:
“Mathematical truths are always simple once understood.”
This serves as a reminder that in mathematics, understanding the rules is more important than speed.
What This Challenge Allows You to Work On
- Respecting the order of operations
- Managing multiplications
- Being rigorous in calculations

Detailed Solution We Found:
Method to Follow
To solve this equation correctly, you should:
- First, perform the multiplication
- Then proceed with additions and subtractions from left to right
- Simplify step by step
- Verify the result obtained
We start with the multiplication:
10 × 10 = 100
The equation becomes:
110 − 100 + 10
Then we calculate:
110 − 100 = 10
10 + 10 = 20
Result
Answer: 20
Conclusion
This equation illustrates how a seemingly simple calculation can become tricky if the order of operations is not respected. The key remains the same: method, rigor, and attention to each step.
