Add one set of parenthesis to make the following equation true 25 - 8 - 2 = 19

1 answer:

7 0

An easy way to do this is to do trial and error.

All possible places to put the bracket:

a) (25 - 8) - 2 = 19 But since BEDMAS goes from left to right with Addition and Subtraction, the equation is unaffected.
b) 25 - (8 - 2) = 19
25 - 6 = 19

Therefore b) is correct.

Use grouping symbols and at least one exponent to write a numerical expression that has a value of 80.

Kaylis [27]

To group an expression, means that the factors of the expression are to be separated in (), [] or {}.

An expression with a value of 80 is: $2^2 \times ( [2 + 2] \times [3 + 2] )$

The number is given as:

$80$

Factorize

$80 = 2 \times 40$

Factorize 40

$80 = 2 \times 2 \times 20$

Express $2 \times 2$ as an exponent

$80 = 2^2 \times 20$

Express 20 as 4 x 5

$80 = 2^2 \times ( 4 \times 5)$

Express 5 as 3 + 2

$80 = 2^2 \times ( 4 \times [3 + 2] )$

Express 4 as 2 + 2

$80 = 2^2 \times ( [2 + 2] \times [3 + 2] )$

Hence, the above expression has a numerical value of 80

How do you create common denominator so you can compare fractions

Fofino [41]

Find a common denominator by multiplying the denominators together. Use that common denominator to create equivalent fractions. Then, compare the numerators to figure out which is bigger
