Following the MDAS rule (Multiplication, Division, Addition then Subtraction), the answer is 29.

The right answer is 29 most of you are right

because in mathematics X is

(how can i say it) yes stronger than + so you must do it first also / so (x,/) stronger than (+,-)

at the end if you have a formula like this you have to do all the x / then you can make the sum of all these

why we have 64 answer?

the ordinary calculator does the calculation one after another i.e it press hidden (=)and you can't see it

1) 5+3 =8 then 8x8= 64

so it is designed for one operation

the scientific calculation waits until you press the next + or -

i.e. 5+2x4/7x9 -1 ==> it will calculate all the 2x4/7x9 and store it in one number then it will do the sum

so please be careful about this ;)

about 69 answer !! i am sure that guy didn't use a calculator but he must buy a new clean one

lol

5 plus 3 equal to 8

8 multiply by 8 equal to 64

5 + 3 X 8= 64

Use calculator as described above

29 as the x operator takes the first level and any electronic device if given this calculation will give this same result.

5 + (3 x 8)= 29
