Answer 4

It would be PEMDAS if they are asking you to identify the first operation needing to be done in the equation. You can follow it or don't your decision. I stand by Multiplication though.

Answer 6

And it can't be subtraction because there is no subtraction sign, thus no subtracting happening, then it can be division because there is no division sign thus no division. Sometimes it helps to rule out the others before making a decision. Good luck!
