Solve for t.

( 124 + 6 x 8 ) ÷ 2 = t

Answer 1

( 124 + 6 x 8 ) ÷ 2 = t

=> ( 124 + 48 ) ÷ 2 = t

=> 86 = t

Answer 2

Hi there!

`\large\boxed{t = 86}`

To solve, we must use PEMDAS:

P: Parenthesis

E: Exponents

M: Multiply

D: Divide

A: Add

S: Subtract

Evaluate the inside of the parenthesis:

(124 + 6 × 8)

Multiply first:

(124 + 48)

Evaluate:

124 + 48 = 172

Divide by 2:

172 ÷ 2 = 86 = t
