Answer:

5

Explanation:

2 * 6 + 8 - 12 - 3

This question uses order of operations or BEDMAS.

Brackets, Exponents, Division, Multiplication, Addition, Subtraction

Since there aren't any brackets, exponents, or division in the question, we'll do the multiplication first.

2 * 6 = 12

So now we have:

12 + 8 - 12 - 3

Addition and subtraction have an equal 'level of importance' so we do them from left to right.

12 + 8 = 20

20 - 12 = 8

8 - 3 = 5

Therefore, the final answer is 5. Hope this helps!

Answer:

The answer would be 5.

Explanation:

To help you figure out this problem, break it up into pieces.

First, multiply 2 by 6.

2 × 6 = 12

Then add 8 to your sum.

12 + 8 = 20

After, subtract 12 from your sum

20 - 12 = 8

Finally, subtract 3 from the difference.

8 - 3 = 5

The number 5 would be your final answer.

Hope this helps!!!!
