    Yes its 21444

    You do:

    1. 728 x 28 = 20384

    2. 2000 - 1000 = 1000

    3. 20384 + 1060 = 20444

    2000 - 1000 + 728 x 28 + 60 =?


    In americas we use
    P Perenthesis
    E Exponents
    M Multipication
    D Division
    A Addition
    S Subtraction

    So I would
    2000 - 1000 + 728 x 28 + 60 =?

    728 x 28 = 20384

    So then you have
    2000 - 1000 + 20384 + 60

    Then yoyu do

    1000 + 20384 + 60 = 20544

    Then

    2000 - 20544 = -18544
    This is a signature, hope it's not too big.

    dont remind me ov BODMAS

    use calculator on you computer
    The other day I was in a toilet.
    A voice came from the cubicle next to me: "Hello mate, how are you doing?"
    I didn't want to be rude, so I said, "Not too bad, thanks."
    I heard the voice again. "So, what are you up to?"
    Again I answered, "Just having a quick ****... How about yourself?"
    Then I heard him say "Sorry, mate, I'll have to call you back. I've got some **** in the cubicle next to me answering everything I say."
