Question

Rose worked the following problem incorrectly. 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

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 2

I think the error happened here:

Line 2 30 ÷ 5(2) − 4
--------------------

I think Line 2 should read (30/5) * (3 - 1) - 4

Line 3 6 * (2) - 4

Line 4 12 - 4

Line 5 8

Answer 3
