Question

Simplify the expression.

46 – 16 ÷ 2 × 4

I don't just want the answer, I would like to know how to get the answer.

Answer 1

first 16/2= 8

46-8x4

now multiply 8 and 4

46-32
now subtract

14 is your answer

Answer 2

Hey!

What this question wants you to do is use PEDMAS, that is the order of operations, to get the answer.
P - Parentheses
E - Exponents
D - Division
M - Multipliation
A - Addition
S - Subtraction

So using PEDMAS, solve this problem by doing the operations first that come first, so you might want to start by solving 16 divided 2. (Division comes before multipliciation)
