Describe order of operation and give an example

Mathematics

ryzh [129]4 years ago

Order of Operation is commonly referred to as PEMDAS, an acronym for "Please excuse my dear aunt Sally," which references the order in which operations should  be calculated when solving a math problem.

P = parentheses

E = exponent

M = multiply

D = divide

A = add

S = subtract

So you don't always have all of these components, but you consider the ones present in the problem in front of you.    If there is no multiplication, but there is division and a set of parentheses, then you FIRST solve what's inside the parentheses, then  you divide.    If you have some examples, I'll show you.

Example is use Order of operations to solve 4•(5-3)+12
First you would do 5-3=2 than 2•4=8 than 12+8=20.

You have been given the task of transporting 3,000 apples 1,000 miles from Appleland to Bananaville. Your truck can carry 1,000
chubhunter [2.5K]
If the truck can carry 1000 apples at a time, Bananaville is 1000 miles away from Appleland and you pay one apple per mile, then it's impossible to deliver any apple to Bananaville, because on 1000 miles you'll pay 1 apple * 1000 miles = 1000 apples as a tax. So no matter if you go once, twice, three times or a hundred times there - you'll be never able to deliver any apple.

Answer: The highest number of apples you can get to Bananaville is 0.

John leaves his home. He travels 5 blocks south and three blocks west. As the crow flies, how far is John from his home?
riadik2000 [5.3K]

Answer:

5.83 blocks away from his home

Step-by-step explanation:

If he travels 5 blocks south and 3 blocks west, the distance from his house considered along with the distances travelled gives a right angled triangle whose opposite side and adjacent sides are the distances travelled north and west.

The distance from his house after moving 3 blocks west is the hypotenuse side. As such, the distance may be computed using Pythagoras' theorem. Let the distance from his house be G

G^2 = 5^2 + 3^2

G^2 = 25 + 9

= 34

G = √34

=5.83

John is 5.83 blocks away from his home
