Question

Evaluate. 8 • [5 + (18 – 7)] ÷ 4 Please help! Im stuck.

Answer 1

8·(5+(18-7))÷4
Remember PEMDAS, Parenthesis, Exponents, Multiply, Divide, Add, Subtract 
First Step: 18-7=11
New equation would be: 8·(5+11)÷4
Second Step: 11+5=16
New equation would be: 8·16÷4
Third Step: 8·16=128
New equation would be: 128÷4
Fourth Step: 128÷4=32
So the answer would be 32
Hope this helps :)

Answer 2

The answer is 32. This is because, first according to The Order of Operations, we do parentheses first (or other grouping symbols). So now the equation looks like this: 8(5 + 11) divided by 4. Next, we add 5 +11, which is 16, so 8(16) = 128, and 128 divided by 4 is 32. I hope this helps! If you need helps on the Order of Operation, please ask! :D
