Answer:-

Simplify:
17-6 * 10 / 2 +12

PEMDAS rule acronym as

P -Parenthesis

E - Exponent

M -Multiplication

D - Division

A - Addition

S - subtraction

Now, follow the rule to simplify the expression:


17-6 * 10 / 2 +12

According to the PEMDAS rule,

First we multiply the numbers 6 and 10 we have;


17-60 / 2 +12

Now, divide the number 60 by 2 we get;


17-30+12

Now, Add the numbers 17 and 12 we have


29-30

Now, subtract the numbers 29 and 30; we get

-1

Therefore, the simplified expression of
17-6 * 10 / 2 +12 according to the PEDMAS rule is, -1

use PEMDAS.

17-(6×10÷2)+12

6×10=60 divide by 2 to get 30

now: 17-30+12
17-30=-13
-13+12=-1
