14

Explanation:

PEMDAS

10/2 then 12+5-3

Answer 2

Option B

ANSWER:

The solution for 12 + 10 ÷ 2 − 3 is 14

SOLUTION:

Given, 12 + 10 ÷ 2 – 3.

Let us use the BODMAS rule to solve this expression.

BODMAS means sequence of operations is brackets, order, division, multiplication, addition, subtraction.

We know that, in BODMAS rule, first division operation should be performed.

`\begin{array}{l}{\rightarrow 12+10 / 2-3} \\ {\rightarrow 12+(10)/(2)-3} \\ {\rightarrow 12+5-3}\end{array}`

Now, in order, multiplication should be done but in our required expression there is no multiplication terms. So we can go to next operation.

Next operation is addition operation.

`\begin{array}{l}{\Rightarrow 12+5-3} \\ {\Rightarrow 17-3}\end{array}`

Now, the last operation is subtraction.

`\begin{array}{l}{\rightarrow 17-3} \\ {\rightarrow 14}\end{array}`

We got 14 after evaluation. Hence, option B is correct.
