Question

I'm having problems because our teacher is making us do this monstersety 391.92x10372.45-918+12.5

Answer 1

4064265.104

Explanation:

Use PEMDAS :

Parentheses, Exponents, Multiplication, Division, Addition, Subtraction.

We only have multiplication and addition/subtraction to do. Multiplication and Division can go in either order depending on which comes first reading left to right. It's the same with Addition and Subtraction: we will first subtract 918 and then add 12.5.

Let's start by Multiplying. 391.92 x 10372.45 = 4065170.604.

Now, subract 918. 4065170.604-918 = 4064252.604.

Finally, add back 12.5. 4064252.604. +12.5 = 4064265.104 !
