Question

Explain why 2/3 ×12 can be written as 2 × 12 ÷3

Answer 1

Answer:

violates the rules or bedmas

Step-by-step explanation:

When doing questions like these, bedmas comes into play. althought multiplication and division are the same in terms of priority, you should do the one that comes first when reading the equation/formula left to right.

this would mean you would do 2 ÷ 3 and the answer would be multiplied by 12.
