Question

26 -(6+6) +3 (23-8)

can anyone help me plsss if u know the answer pls briefly explain it to me ....

Answer 1

Explanation:

are you sure you for everything correctly ?

to me this gives the impression that there are some things potentially missing.

what I can see :

26 - (6 + 6) + 3(23 - 8)

remember the priorities of mathematical operations :

1. brackets

2. exponents

3. multiplications and divisions

4. additions and subtractions

so we need to start with the brackets :

26 - (12) + 3(15) = 26 - 12 + 3×15

now we need to do the multiplication

26 - 12 + 45

and not the additions and subtractions

26 - 12 + 45 = 59

we had no exponents anywhere, so, we could skip 2.

Answer 2

The correct answer is going to be 59.

Using PEMDAS the first step is going to be adding/subtracting what is in the parentheses(P). So your new equation will be 26 -(12) +3 (15).

Next you will Multiply (M) making your new equation 26 - 12 +45.

Then you can finally add (A) and subtract (S) to calculate the rest of the equation.

26-12+45=59
