Question

Find the value of the expression below.

Answer 1

Answer:

2

Step-by-step explanation:

15 + 5 × 3

________

  3² + 6

For this question, we need to use PEMDAS to solve the question correctly. PEMDAS stands for "parentheses, exponents, multiplication, division, addition, subtraction". In this question, for the numerator, we see 5 x 3 so that's multiplication. So we multiply those together to get 15. In the denominator, there's an exponent which is 3². We have to find the square of 3 so that we can simplify the denominator as well. That simplifies to 9:

(15+15)/(9+6)

Next, we just have to add the 15+15 in the numerator together and 9+6 in the denominator together:

30/15

Finally, we divide 30/15 to get 2 as our answer
