What can I help you with? (:

Answer 2

\[3 x 3 + (2^{2} + 16 \div 8)\]

Answer 3

The equation is above :)

Answer 4

Okay, so first, do you know what PEMDAS stands for? (:

Answer 5

yes, parentheses, exponents, multiplication, division, addition, and subtraction

Answer 6

that is the order to take on an equation :)

Answer 7

Yes, that is correct.
So, according to that, which do you think we should do first?

Answer 8

the parentheses

Answer 9

Yep! :D
So, go ahead and start with the area in parentheses. (:

Answer 10

\[3 X 3 + (4 + 2)\]

Answer 11

i think, then 4 +2 is 6

Answer 12

That is correct!
So, after that, what do you have? (:

Answer 13

3 x 3 + 6 = 9+6 = 15
?

Answer 14

I believe it should just be 3x3+6 next.

Answer 15

oh okay, so 3 x 3 + 6 = 15
?

Answer 16

Where are you getting the 15 from?

Answer 17

when i multiply 3 and 3, i get 9. then i add on the 6 so i get 15

Answer 18

Oh, so the "x" between the 3's is a multiplication symbol rather than the variable "x"?

Answer 19

oh yes sorry about that, it is a multiplication sign

Answer 20

Haha okay

Answer 21

Then it should be 9 + (4 + 2)
We agreed that 4 + 2= 6, so 9 + 6= 15

Answer 22

ok, got it! Thanks so much for your help and courtesy! :)
