My students know I’m right. Everyone’s students know that’s right. It’s only adults who’ve forgotten the rules who get this wrong.

None on my face. My students do very well in their tests. How about you? BTW try it on a calculator and guess what answer you’ll get. hint: it’ll be the same answer regardless of which order you do it 😂

10-1+1=10 only if you don’t the addition first 1 + 1 = 2 - 10 = 8, which was my mistake, which I already stated.
Now jog on “math teacher”.

Nope, gives 10 in any order. 10+1-1=11-1=10 <== addition first. Accountants would have a nightmare if order mattered.
No, your mistake was adding brackets, 10-(1+1) ISN’T how to do addition first. 10+1-1 is. Ask an accountant! 😂
I see you still didn’t try it on a calculator yet then
