Question

Evaluate ab + c for a = 2, b = 3, and c = 4

Answer 1

10

Explanation:

This is the answer because:

1) First, insert all the numbers that the variables equal. a=2, b=3, and c=4

Equation: 2(3) + 4

2) Now, solve for this equation

2 x 3 = 6

6 + 4 = 10

Remember to use the order of operations.

PEMDAS or GEMS

PEMDAS = Parenthesis, Exponents, Multiplication, Division, Addition and Subtraction

GEMS = Grouping (Parenthesis), Exponents, Multiplication and Division (whichever comes first from left to right), Addition and Subtraction (whichever comes first from left to right)

Hope this helps! :D
