Answer: She isn't correct.

Step-by-step explanation: The BODMAS rule must be strictly followed and as such gives different answers to the two expressions.

(12-3)*2 basically gives:

9*2 (Dealing with the bracket first)

18.

While 12-(3*2) while dealing with the bracket first will give:

12-6; which would eventually give

6.

Solve the division problem. <br> -1 3/5 divide (-2/3) <br> write as a mixed number.
kodGreya [7K]

First you make -1 3/5 into an improper fraction, -8/5

Since you're dividing a fraction by another fraction you'd change it to -8/5 × -3/2

(Don't forget to flip -2/3 to -3/2)

when you multiply it it'd be 24/10

(It is a positive number because when you multiply two negative numbers it becomes positive)

24/10 as a mixed fraction is 2 1/5
