Question

Solve the problem 8 + [(8 × 5) – 10] = ? A. 46 B. 38 C. 58 D. 30

Answer 1

The answer is A. 38

Explanation:

8 + [(8 x 5) - 10] =

8 + (40 - 10) =

8 + 30 = 38

Answer 2

For this case, we must resolve the following expression:

`8 + [(8 * 5) -10] =`

We solve the multiplication within the parenthesis, to eliminate it:

`8+ [40-10] =`

As a second step, we solve the subtraction:

`8 + 30 =`

Finally, we add:

38

So,
`8 + [(8 * 5) -10] = 38`
