Sometimes even the simplest arithmetical problem can baffle and cause heated discussions about the ways of solving it. Recently, the Curiosity community published this tricky problem.
Can you solve this?
It turned out that Google gives out one answer (this is 7), but old calculator — another (that is 1):

Let’s recall school curricula, add brackets in your mind and get the correct answer…
6 — (1*0) + (2/2) = 7
