NoodlesAndRiceYT:

Looks like your gonna have to use PEMDAS

Aboveusonlysky52:

noodles i was gonna say that

Aboveusonlysky52:

im done

kamani:

OK

kamani:

so like

NoodlesAndRiceYT:

By the rule of PEMDAS, what do you have to do first?

NoodlesAndRiceYT:

Well first, do you know what PEMDAS is?

kamani:

parenthesis?

NoodlesAndRiceYT:

That is what the P means in PEMDAS, and sense we dont have any parenthesis, we can move on to the "E", which is exponents

NoodlesAndRiceYT:

I'm not seeing any exponents in there so lets go on to M, which is multiply.

kamani:

the exponents are 1/3

kamani:

right

kamani:

oh so we don't have one

And im not seeing any multiplication either. So on to "D", division

kamani:

9-3 divided by 1/3

NoodlesAndRiceYT:

We do have division but we cant do it until we have done "9-3"

NoodlesAndRiceYT:

Which im sure you know 9-3.

kamani:

it's 6

NoodlesAndRiceYT:

indeed, so now what is 6 divided by 1/3?

kamani:

I'm ik 6 divided by 1 is 6

mhanifa:

First step 3 : (1/3) = a Second step 9 - a = b Third step b + 1 = answer

But this isnt a 1, it is a 1/3

This is incorrect step according to PEMDAS

NoodlesAndRiceYT:

i know but we cant really continue without doing that step ;-;

kamani:

ok so we divided the 1/3 first to get a whole number

kamani:

then when we get the whole number then we divided

NoodlesAndRiceYT:

I guess we could do that

NoodlesAndRiceYT:

wait

mhanifa:

What do you get after first step?

NoodlesAndRiceYT:

1/3 wouldnt be a whole number though

mhanifa:

3 : (1/3) = 3 x 3 = 9

kamani:

so what do we do I'm really not good at math

NoodlesAndRiceYT:

im guessing you can help them mhanifa, thanks. I gotta go eat lunch.

NoodlesAndRiceYT:

Sorry kamani, i wouldnt just leave if this person didnt show up. They also seem like they know more.

mhanifa:

After the first step you have: 9 - 9 + 1

kamani:

huh I'm confused

mhanifa:

Step 2: 9 - 9 = 0

mhanifa:

What is the last step?

kamani:

division

mhanifa:

Step 3: 0 + 1 = your answer

kamani:

answer 1

mhanifa:
