(4x + 2)(x - 5) / 2
x = 2
<u>Step 2: Evaluate</u>
- Substitute: (4 · 2 + 2)(2 - 5) / 2
- Parenthesis - Multiply: (8 + 2)(2 - 5) / 2
- Parenthesis - Add: 10(2 - 5) / 2
- Parenthesis - Subtract: 10(-3) / 2
- Multiply: -30 / 2
- Divide: -15
It's important because changing the order of operations changes the answer

Compute 24/3=r
then r is equal to 12
Let's assign some random values to it, and say 1 unit of petroleum costs 100 bitcoins, because we all know bitcoins are the best currency :P
If the price goes up by 10%, it is now 100*1.1 = 110bitcoins for 1 unit.
However he's only getting 0.9 units now, so multiplying 110 by 0.9 gives us 99 bitcoins. His petroleum bill used to be 100 (which is why I picked 100 as it's easier), and now it is 99. Therefore his petroleum bill has reduced by 1%
