@satellite73

OpenStudy (anonymous):

if it was me, i would use a calculator

OpenStudy (anonymous):

help me please

Atsie (atsie):

A calculator doesn't show the person HOW to solve the problem though @satellite73

OpenStudy (anonymous):

how would I go about solving this

OpenStudy (anonymous):

btw if there are no parentheses, the answer is not a whole number

OpenStudy (anonymous):

first multiply \(90\times 4\)

OpenStudy (fairy733189):

Follow PEMDAS

OpenStudy (anonymous):

360

OpenStudy (fairy733189):

P- You first begin by solving anything that is inside a parenthesis. If there isn't anything inside a parenthesis, move to E. E- Then, you solve the exponents. Once again, if there are not any exponents move on. M- multiply D- divide A- add S- subtract

OpenStudy (anonymous):

41.6 would be the answer

OpenStudy (fairy733189):

Let me check

OpenStudy (anonymous):

ok

@mathmale

OpenStudy (fairy733189):

Hang on almost done

OpenStudy (anonymous):

kk

OpenStudy (fairy733189):

That wouldn't be right

OpenStudy (anonymous):

o

OpenStudy (anonymous):

idk

OpenStudy (fairy733189):

Can you show me how you did it?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

i did all of it and got my answer.

OpenStudy (fairy733189):

Ok let me show you how

OpenStudy (mathmale):

Fairy's on the right track. It is ESSENTIAL that you follow Order of Operations rules here.

OpenStudy (fairy733189):

Since there're no numbers in a parenthesis and because there are no exponents, you would begin by multiplying. 90 • 4 – 14 ÷ 2 + 102 ÷ 5 • 2 The two multiplication pairs are 90 by 4 and 5 by 2 So after multiplying your equation will look like this: 360 - 14 ÷ 2 + 102 ÷ 10 The next thing in the order of operations is dividing So you would divide 14 by 2 and 102 by 10. The equation will then look like this: 360 - 7 + 10.2 Next, you add 10.2 and 7: 360 - 17.2 And finally subtract. 342.8 is your answer
