I was being sarcastic, of course a lot of people here in Brilliant would know the correct answer, but if for example you post this question on Facebook, a lot of the people would answer zero.
I think this is an amazing question.
I answered potato..I thought I was right.
Correct the statement: 19% of people got this incorrect. =p (Not to be taken seriously)
1 + 1 + 1 + 1 × 0 =
1 + 1 + 1 + 0
= 3
1 + 1 + 1 + 1 × 0 = 1 + 1 + 1 = 3 .
my solution is that... 1 + 1 + 1 + 1 ∗ 0 ⇒ 1 + 1 + 1 + 0 = 3
You said 95% will answer incorrectly but only 22% answered incorrectly.

It's just simple order of operations.
Multiplication and Division take precedence over Addition and Subtraction, so they're evaluated first:
1 + 1 + 1 + 1 × 0 = ? 1 + 1 + 1 + 0 = ? 1 + 1 + 1 = 3
