Answer:
7 . 4 + 6 - 12 : 4 = 31
Step-by-step explanation:
* To solve this problem lets revise the order of operations in
mathematics
- The operations are:
# Addition
# Subtraction
# Multiplication
# Division
# Exponentiation
# Grouping ⇒ Parenthesis or brackets
- The order of these operations is:
# Parenthesis
# Exponents
# Multiplication and Division which comes first from left to right
# Addition and Subtraction which comes first from left to right
- There is a word made from the first letter of each operation
PEMDAS to remember the order of operations
* Lets solve the problem
∵ 7 . 4 + 6 - 12 : 4
∵ The (.) means multiply the numbers
∵ The symbol (:) means divided the numbers
∴ At first multiply 7 by 4 and divide 12 by 4
∴ (7 × 4) + 6 - (12 ÷ 4)
∴ 28 + 6 - 3
∵ Addition comes before subtraction from the left
∴ (28 + 6) - 3
∴ 34 - 3 = 31
∴ 7 . 4 + 6 - 12 : 4 = 31
