Hello,


To solve this mathematical question, simply substitute the values of each known variable into the expression q/2r-2.


q = 8,

r = 1

s = 3


Therefore:

8/2(1)-2


Use the order of operation (PEMDAS) to solve :


2*1=2


Refined:

8/2-2

8/2 = 4


Refined:

4-3= 1


Thus, q/2r-s equals 1.


Your answer is option one: 1.



Faith xoxo
