These problems always make me feel bad for the world. The answer is 15.

Can we all just agree that this problem is unsolvable and move on?
I mean why is one opinion more valuable than another?

No
I figured the value of the bottle is 10
The cheese burger 5
the mug 1
ETA: so my answer should have been 60. I was flipping back and fourth between screens. :bandhead:

See these questions are fricking stupid. Heres why: You enter it in a manual calculator as its written and its 5+1*10=60. (oddly enough your iphone calculator accounts for PEMDAS and gives you 15)
PEMDAS is lazy. Sorry not sorry. If you want it to be a certain way than write it 10x1+5 or 5+(1*10). Its not that hard and it takes out human error.

The whole problem is invalid because the bottle of suds is too expensive WRT the burger, and the drafts are too cheap. Thus, unsolvable.

Probably the deepest divide in this thread.
Is it simply two beer bottles or is it a different variable?

23 pages and you're the first one to throw out 90. You're a special kind of idiot.
Seriously, I almost fell out my chair when I saw 90.

1x10=10 +5=15
Beer bottle is worth 10
Burger is worth 5
Beer mug is worth 2 eta 1
edit
beer mug is worth 1 I downvoted myself didn't realize there were 2 mugs in the picture.

No, you rat piece of shite. The solution to the problem is 15. Any non-obtuse gentleman can see that. The idea that the answer could be something other than 15 is disconcerting.
