Question

Part 1) In which line was the mistake made? Part 2) Show your work and give the correct answer? Line 1 30 ÷ 5(3 − 1) − 4 Line 2 30 ÷ 5(2) − 4 Line 3 30 ÷ 10 − 4 Line 4 3 − 4 Line 5 −1

Answer 1

the problem should be done like this: Simplify to ((30 / 5) * (3 - 1)) - 4, which equals (6*2) - 4 which equals 8. So the answer is 8 and Rose's error is in Line 3, because she should have done 30 divided by 5 in this step.
