Question

Ronnie's teacher wrote this expression on the board. (-4)(2) + (10/2) What is the value of this expression?

Answer 1

The answer would be -3.

Explanation:

If you follow PEMDAS, the first set of parenthesis, (-4)(2), would equal -8. The next set of parenthesis, (10/2), would equal 5. Adding -8 and 5 together gives you -3.
