15 x 3 + 12 x 2 in pemdas

Question

well what is the answer and how to figure it out 

 

Answer 1

45+24=69. Pemdas stands for parentacy, exponent, multiply, divide, addition, and subtraction. In the question there are only 2 mathematical operation in this question, multiplication and addition. In order, Pemdas also indicates the operations should go in order. Therefore parentacy> exponent>multiplication/division>addition/ subtraction. Theoretically multiplication and division are equally important operation and same goes to addition and subtraction. If both came up at the same time just work on the operation closer to the left. For this question since multiplication has a higher priority than addition. Work out both multiplication and then add. 15×3= 45 and 12×2=24 and then add them together 45+24=69.
