Question

2x5+8
Show work please.

Answer 1

18

Explanation:

since we have 2x5+8

we do PEMDAS

__________________________________________________________

PEMDAS is an acronym for the words parenthesis, exponents, multiplication, division, addition, subtraction. Given two or more operations in a single expression, the order of the letters in PEMDAS tells you what to calculate first, second, third and so on, until the calculation is complete.

__________________________________________________________

so we do multiplication first :

2 x 5 = 10

__________________________________________________________

then we add the 10 to the 8, so:

10 + 8 = 18

and there is your answer 18
