OpenStudy (skullpatrol):

Any ideas?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

I think the answer is 8/13. Is the question complete?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

is this 32*6 quantity divided by 312?

OpenStudy (skullpatrol):

Do all multiplications and divisions in order from left to right.

OpenStudy (anonymous):

none of the answers are correct

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Yes, the question is complete. It only wants a simplified answer, not the solution.

OpenStudy (skullpatrol):

$$\Huge (32)*6 ÷ 312$$

OpenStudy (skullpatrol):

Do all multiplications and divisions in order from left to right.

OpenStudy (anonymous):

I think so.

OpenStudy (anonymous):

The 2 and the 6 are exponents! sorry!

OpenStudy (anonymous):

so ut's 3(exponent 2)(exponent 6) and then the rest.

OpenStudy (skullpatrol):

$$\Huge (3^2)^6 ÷ 312$$

OpenStudy (anonymous):

yes

OpenStudy (skullpatrol):

1. Simplify expressions within grouping symbols

OpenStudy (skullpatrol):

$$\Huge (9)^6 ÷ 312$$

OpenStudy (skullpatrol):

2.Then simplify powers

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Whoops... I made another mist ake.... the last 1/2 is 3 (exponent 12) not 312

OpenStudy (skullpatrol):

$$\Huge531,441 ÷ 312$$

OpenStudy (anonymous):

still waiting to see how this connects to the answer choices, my math is identical.
