Answer is 16

That's a multiplication sign in the equation, not an additional sign.
5 + 1 x 10 = 16

Sorry, got confused by your autism,
5 + 1 x 10 = 15

5 + 2 × 10 = 25, I feel icky without paranthesis though.

How is everyone getting the chickens as 1? It's clearly 2 since 5 + 2 + 2 = 9.

Sup OP, I am taking an online history class so I can graduate on time. It's piss easy. Maybe 250 pages of reading total and ten pages of writing. Almost makes me feel like I'm not getting my money's worth.

There are two possibilities here.
1. We accept that one chicken is unrelated to the two chicken as a variable, just like w is unrelated to v in maths.
2. We could say that, since there isn't any sign indicating an operation, the two chicken are actually multiplying each other. So two chicken is actually chicken squared. Because chicken squared is equal to 2 one chicken would equal root 2. Then the solution for the last equation would be about 19.14. This solution just feels a bit weird because there are no clear relations between one and two chicken.
Now with this out of the way could we please just discuss OPs question?
