You have to put the numbers in order and find the middle value so in this case it's-
2, 4, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 8, 8
The answer is $6
4000 (4x10^3) times 400 (4x10^2) is equal to 16x10^5 ( 1,600,000)
So the formula for a volume of a sphere is 4/3 times pi times the radius cubed.
step one: 4/3 times 3.14 = 4.18666666667
Step two: then you cube 8.5 and get 592.45
the final answer is 2,480.3906
The order of arithmetic operations is given by the acronym PEMDAS, which means
Parentheses,
Exponents,
Multiplication,
Division,
Addition,
Subtraction.
These two examples illustrate how the use of parentheses can change the order.
Example 1:
5+7/3x4-2/5 has an answer of 13.933.
Use PEMDAS to obtain
5+(7/3)x4-(2/5)
= 5+(2.3333x4)-0.4
= 5+9.3333-0.4
= 14.3333-0.4
= 13.933
If we apply the parentheses: (5+7)/3x4-2/5
The result is
(12/3)x4-(2/5)
= (4x4)-0.4
= 16-0.4
= 15.06
which is a different answer.
Example 2:
8/3²x5+4 has the answer 8.444
Use PEMDAS to obtain
8/(3²)x5+4
= (8/9)x5+4
= (0.8889x5)+4
= 4.4444+4
= 8.4444
If we apply the parentheses (8/3)²x5+4:
The result is
2.6667²x5+4
= 7.1113x5+4
= 35.5565+4
= 39.5565
which is a different answer.
