Uhh my brains hurts looking at that
Molly got 20 because she did not follow the order of operations, so this is incorrect. Nancy got the correct answer because she multiplied 4 * 3, and then added 2, giving her 14. Molly added 3+2, and multiplied that by 4. Nancy is correct with 14.
A negative divided by a negative is always a positive. 4 can go into 18 only 4 times to get 16 with a remainder of 2. 2 is half of four, therefore -4 can go into -18 4.5 times.
The answer is 4 1/2 or 4.5.
I hope this helps ^-^
