So, if you follow the quote you end up with 11, but thats the WRONG answer as you're not supposed to do what it says, just add all the numbers...
So you add up 1, 5, 6, 22, 2 you get 36 - which again is STILL wrong!
So I thought, must be a trick question, cos they are all words and no numbers, so the answer must be zero - but thats wrong ASWELL!!!!!








:w all:



Can't figure it out





Maybe it works on the positive and negative factors of the numbers. i.e minus six is -6. If you add just the numbers in this fashion you would get 1 + 5 + -6 + 22 + 2 = 24??? or am I way off
