Answer:

The value is 9

Explanation:

PEMDAS is an order of operations, Parentheses ( ), Exponent
x^(2), Multiplication ×, Division ÷, Addition +, and Subtraction -.

13 - 96 ÷ 8 + 8

As you can see in the problem, there are no PEM (Parentheses, Exponent, and Multiplication) so know you only have DAS (Division, Addition, and Subtraction) which is simple.

13 - 96 ÷ 8 + 8

96 ÷ 8 = 12

13 - 12 + 8 = 9

Edit: I also used a calculator to make sure and got 9

Anyways, hope I helped and sorry if it's wrong

To follow PEMDAS we do division first:

96/8 = 12 so now we have 13 - 12 + 8

Next we do Addition:

13 - 20
