Really?
OpenStudy (itrymath):
okay so first we solve in in () right
OpenStudy (itrymath):
OH WAIT i know
OpenStudy (itrymath):
2 over 3 multiply 6w right??
OpenStudy (vheah):
You follow the PEMDAS rule
Parentheses
Exponents
Multiply
Divide
Add
Subtract
So you follow in that sequence
Looking at the equation, you have a parentheses () which encloses 6w-12, so let's look at that first. We can't solve anything because we have a letter 'w' so we jump to the next. We don't have exponents, so it leads us to multiply.
So you have 2/3(6w-12)
you have to distribute that inside the parentheses
|dw:1474998029897:dw|
