doesn't follow rules of BODMAS; there are no brackets in the 'equation' and then the rules of priority are applied as if reading from left to right, not in order of priority if I remember GCSE maths (I am going back to the 80's here.....)
5 + 1 x 10 = 60
I'm sticking with 60 but if I'm wrong on BODMAS rule then I'll go for 15 
The whole point of these pictograms is to create the debate; the reading it wrong, the recognition of the subtleties hidden in the pictures and then the pure math
