Question

An expression is shown.

18÷360×(12÷4+4)−6+3

What is the value of the part of the expression that should be completed first?

PLEASE HELP!

Answer 1

Remember to use PEMDAS (Parenthesis, Exponents, Multiply, Divide, Add, Subtract)

Solve Parenthesis first
(12 ÷ 4 + 4)
(3 + 4)
(7)
7 is the value of the part of the expression that should be completed first

Answer 2

Use the order of operations: PEMDAS: parentheses first, then exponents, multiplication, division, addition, subtraction

=18÷360×(12÷4+4)−6+3
working inside the parentheses, do the division first

=(12÷4+4)
=3+4
=7

ANSWER: The parentheses should be completed first. The value inside the parentheses is 7.

Hope this helps! :)
