Evaluate. 90 • 4 – 14 ÷ 2 + 102 ÷ 5 • 2
@satellite73
if it was me, i would use a calculator
help me please
A calculator doesn't show the person HOW to solve the problem though @satellite73
how would I go about solving this
btw if there are no parentheses, the answer is not a whole number
first multiply \(90\times 4\)
Follow PEMDAS
360
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
41.6 would be the answer
Let me check
ok
@mathmale
Hang on almost done
kk
That wouldn't be right
o
idk
Can you show me how you did it?
i did all of it and got my answer.
Ok let me show you how
Fairy's on the right track. It is ESSENTIAL that you follow Order of Operations rules here.
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
