<h2><u>COMBINED OPERATIONS</u></h2><h3>Exercise</h3>
First, let's solve the subtraction (in parentheses):


Now, let's solve the multiplication. Remember: in multiplication, two negative numbers will give a positive number:


Finally, let's solve the division:

<h3><u>Answer</u>: 16</h3>
Remark
Don't try and do this all at once. Break it down, otherwise you'll have layers and brackets all over the place.
Step One
Find 23/0.3
X = 23/0.3 = 76.7
Step Two
Now Divide by 20
x1 = 76.7 / 20
x1 = 3.83
Step Three
Take this result and put it over 24
x2 = x1/24
x2 = 3.83 / 24
x2 = 0.1597 <<<< Answer
Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:
1. 
2.
3. divide both sides by 7
4. 
Closed circle on -1 and the line goes to the left
X= 25
Explanation:
The two lines are equal. Since 48+16= 64,
the other line has to equal 64 as well.
64-39= 25
