the way I learned math the correct equation would be
120 +( 45 / 4) - 11 =
120+11.25-11= 120.25

(1) I buy preconfigured systems. For my own use, Macs all the way. For the business, off-lease or refurb PCs.

(2) Three years or more. The Macs run forever, and the used Dells don't do too badly either, as long as you don't stress them or let them catch evil bugs.

(3) I've never owned an SSD, but have been impressed with the instantly-gratifying bootups of MacBook Airs in the Apple Store. So I'd love to have one (or two).

(4) I'm in New England. Last I recall, that was still the US of A.

Applying BEDMAS: 120 + 45/4 -11 = 120 + (45/4) -11 = 120 + 11.25 - 11 = 120.25
Straight left to right: (120 + 45)/4 - 11 = 165/4 - 11 = 30.25

a) Extremely important > I have used SSD's at work on some laptops that we purchased for V.P.'s and the boot up time is amazingly fast. I have to have one in my next system.

This one is interesting because the OFFICIAL RULES do not indicate this question is for Canadian residents only. FWIW I am not Canadian. Question is ambiguous (like it was last time) and could lead to more than one answer. Using PEDMAS/BEDMAS order of operations yields 120.25. Maybe the judges are looking for something specific (like the answer spells HOCKEY when turned upside down). LOL
