no brainer

I'm a little stuck... Click here to teach me more about this clue!

'easy question' is the definition.
I know nothing about this answer so I can't tell whether it can be defined by this definition.

'and not about bear in trouble' is the wordplay.
'and not' becomes 'nor' ('nor' means 'and also not').
'about' means one lot of letters goes inside another.
'trouble' indicates anagramming the letters.
'bear'+'in'='bearin'
'bearin' is an anagram of 'braine'.
'nor' placed around 'braine' is 'NO-BRAINER'.

Can you help me to learn more?

(Other definitions for no brainer that I've seen before include "simple task" , "Piece of cake" , "easy choice" , "simple thing?" , "Something requiring little thought" .)

I've seen this clue in The Daily Express.
