Question

Solve using the order of operations: 6.3 7 squared x 3.1

Answer 1

6.37² x 3.1

First is Exponents (6.37²):

40.6 x 3.1

Then, Multiplication:

40.6 x 3.1 = 125.9.

To remember the order of operations, the term PEMDAS can be used. (Parentheses, Exponents, Multiplication, Division, Addition, Subtraction.)
You do the equation in the order of the letters.

Example:

(5-2)5 + 2² / 6 -1 = ?

First, Parentheses:

(3)5 + 2² / 6 - 1

Then, Exponents:

(3)5 + 4 / 6 - 1

Then, Multiplication:

15 + 4 / 6 - 1

Then, Division:

15 + 0.7 - 1

Then, Addition:

15.7 - 1 

Then, Subtraction:

14.7

So that means, (5-2)5 + 2² / 6 -1 = 14.7
