according to PEMDAS (parentheses, exponents, multiplication, division, addition, subtraction) you would do 12 minus 6 first resulting in the answer of 6 so your equation would then be 5 x 6 divided by 2. 5 x 6 comes next in the equation and thats 30 so your new equation is 30 divided by 2. 30 divided by 2 is 15.
