Do you know what PEMDAS is?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

ehhhhh no i don't think so

OpenStudy (anonymous):

its Parenthesis, exponents, multiplication, division, addition, then subtraction

OpenStudy (anonymous):

its the order of how you simplify the expression

OpenStudy (anonymous):

so you do inside the parenthesis first

OpenStudy (anonymous):

okay i will do that real quick

OpenStudy (anonymous):

since theres no exponents you would multiply first

OpenStudy (anonymous):

okay

OpenStudy (anonymous):

i got when i multiplied 40 and 36

OpenStudy (anonymous):

ya so

OpenStudy (anonymous):

it would be

OpenStudy (anonymous):

76

OpenStudy (anonymous):

added right

OpenStudy (anonymous):

(40 - 12)(36/36)

OpenStudy (anonymous):

well you would have to divide 36 by 36 since thats the order of PEMDAS and u would get (40 - 12)(1)

OpenStudy (anonymous):

and then you would subtract 12 from 40 and you would get 28

OpenStudy (anonymous):

and thats your answer

OpenStudy (anonymous):

yay thanks for the awesome help brooo
