Answer 2

63 is the answer i just can't figure out what adds up to get 63.

Answer 3

It's all in the order of operations.

Exponentiate, multiply/divide, add/subtract.

Answer 4

\[4^{2}\times4+4-5\]

Answer 5

ok. i see now thank you!

Answer 6

Just remember: "Please Excuse My Dear Aunt Sally"

It's a mnemonic for the proper order of operations. The first letters stand for:

Parentheses
Exponentiation
Multiplication
Division
Addition
Subtraction

Actually, the P should be a G for grouping. " Gotta Excuse...."

We still don't know what Aunt Sally did to require a pardon.

Answer 7

ok thank you
