Answer:
The correct option is : C. 2 ÷ 12
Step-by-step explanation:
The correct order of operations to solve a given expression is explained by BODMAS.
BODMAS stands for Bracket, Of, Division, Multiplication, Addition and Subtraction.
Therefore, the first step in solving the given equation is to solve the expression inside the brackets by division, followed by multiplication, addition and lastly subtraction.
(2 ÷ 12) - 32 + 4 × 8 - 33 (bracket of division)
= 0.1666 - 32 + (4 × 8) - 33 (multiplication)
= 0.1666 - 32 + 32 - 33
= (0.1666 + 32) - 32 - 33 (addition)
= (32.1666 - 32) - 33 (subtraction)
= (0.1666 - 33 )
= -32.8334
Therefore, the first step in solving the given equation is to solve the expression inside the brackets by division.
