Question

Write the # sentence as a numerical expression and solve .. substract 9 from 18 then divide by 3

Answer 1

Hello Mirusha,

Let's break this down:

1. "subtract 9 from 18" means 18 - 9
2. "then divide by 3" means you divide the previous step by 3: (18-9) ÷ 3 = 9÷3

So we wrote the sentence as the following expression: (18-9) ÷ 3 which equals 9 ÷ 3 and the answer is 3
