Question

Simplify: 12÷12(4−6) A. 2 B. -2 C. 1 D. - 0.5

Answer 1

12 ÷ 12(4 − 6)

Using BODMAS or PEDMAS (depending upon which part of the world you live),

12 ÷ 12(4 − 6)

= 12 ÷ (12 × -2)

= 12 ÷ (-24)

= $\frac{12}{-24} = \frac{1}{-2} = - \frac{1}{2}$

= -0.5

Hence, the answer is D.

Answer 2

12÷(-24)
-1/2
-0.5
