Question

Place grouping symbols to make this equation true 18 - 6 x 4 = 48

Answer 1

`(12 - 6) * 4 = 48`

Explanation:

The given expresion is:

`18 - 6 * 4 = 48`

For this statement to be true, we need to put parenthesis around the first two terms:

`(18 - 6) * 4 = 48`

Let us verify this by solving the parenthesis first and multiply the result by 4 to get 48.

`12 * 4 = 48`

`48 = 48`

This is true.
