1,
3 + 4 * 6 = 3 + 24 = 27    ( using PEMDAS  which says multiply before add))

To do the addition first we put parentheses around the 3 + 4:-

(3 + 4) * 6  = 7*6 = 42

2.
 6 + 8 / 4   = 6 + 2 = 8

If we put parentheses around the 6 and 8 :-

(6 + 8) / 4   
 = 14/4
= 3.5

Parenthesis indicate which part of the equation is to be done first, see PEMDAS. For example, 3(5-2)-4=5, but 3*5-(2-4)=17

While working out, Susie does 25 sit-ups for every 12 push-ups. If she does 60 push-ups, how many sit-ups will she do?
Sholpan [36]

Answer:

125 situps

Step-by-step explanation:

We can use a ratio to solve

25 situp          x situps

---------------  = --------------

12 pushup    60 pushups

Using cross products

25 * 60 = 12x

Divide each side by 12

25*60/12 = 12x/12

125 = x
