Question

1/2x12/2-2+11 with a set ofparentheses

Answer 1

To add parentheses to make the order of operations clear, we can rewrite the expression as:

(1/2) * (12/2 - 2) + 11

First, we evaluate the expression inside the parentheses:

(1/2) * (6 - 2) + 11

Simplifying further:

(1/2) * 4 + 11

2 + 11

13

Therefore, the expression with parentheses is (1/2)*(12/2-2)+11 = 13.
