Answer 6

Freak. i ment to put a divide sign instead of plus. it should be 14\2. i went from left to right. divided 14/2 got 7. -4+7=3. 16-3. but then i relized you cant put the minus sign as a negative and crap then did 4+7=11 instead and 16-11=5. amd thts not my option either.
Thats what the instructions sayyyyy to do

Answer 7

So the question is this ? 16 – 4 + 14/ 2

Answer 8

if so, the answer is 19 not 13.

Answer 9

you need to do multiplication and division operations before addition and substraction

Answer 10

so, we start with
\[16-4+14/2\]
first we do the division, and get this:
\[16-4+7\]
And now we do the additions and subtractions, and get
\[19\]
