1+7x4-3/6+5.5=

Question

need answer for employment

Answer 1

The key to this problem is to remember the order of operations. Some people remember it using the phrase "Please Excuse My Dear Aunt Sally" - parenthesis, exponents, multiply and divide, add and subtract.

 

In this case, that means you need to start with the multiplication (7X4), and the division (3/6). Once you have worked these out, simply go down the line from left to right, adding and subtracting. (Addition and subtraction receive the same priority, so do them in the order you come to them.

Hope this helps!
