Solution: We know that:
Paul and Brett went to math class and were given the same expression to simplify. The expression they were given was 6 + 12 divided by 2(3) + 1.
Looking at the solution's by Paul and Brett, we clearly see that the Paul made a mistake at step 3.
6 + 12 ÷ 2(3) + 1
6 + 12 ÷ 6 + 1 Correct
18 ÷ 6 + 1 Incorrect It should have been 6 + 2 +1
According to order of operation's rule, division needs to done before addition.
Therefore, solution by Paul carries a mistake, while the solution by Brett is correct.

hope this helps if not let me know have a blessed day
Look at the prime factorization. If all the factors have powers that are multiples of 6, then the number is a square and a cube. If they are multiples of 3, then a cube; if multiples of 2, then a square.
1000 = 2³·5³ . . . . a perfect cube
4 = 2² . . . . a perfect square
120 = 2³·3·5 . . . . none of the above (not a square or a cube)
36 = 2²·3² . . . . a perfect square
100 = 2²·5² . . . . a perfect square
49 = 7² . . . . a perfect square
125 = 5³ . . . . a perfect cube
25 = 5² . . . . a perfect square
