PEMDAS will help you make sure you get the correct answer. If you don't use it then you'll get a completely different answer.

anonymous · Answer

Use PEMDAS in this problem. First you would need to multiply the numerator before you can subtract.

anonymous · Answer

Once you multiply you can subtract. Lastly you just need to divide to get your answer.

mathstudent55 · Answer

Also, a fraction means division and parentheses.

$\dfrac{10 - 2 \cdot 4}{2} = (10 - 2 \cdot 2) \div 2$

Notice how the numerator of the fraction is all grouped in parentheses. This is what I meant before when I wrote that a fraction also means parentheses in addition to division.

mathstudent55 · Answer

$\dfrac{10 - 2 \cdot 4}{2} = (10 - 2 \cdot 2) \div 2 =$

$= (10 - 8) \div 2 = 2 \div 2 = 1$
