Rather than trial and error, you can do this with an equation.
x + x+1 + x+2 = 267 =>
3x+3 = 267
x = 264/3 = 88
So the numbers are 88+89+90. 90 is the largest number.
All the correct answers of the equations using order of operations are;
B. 8⋅7 ÷ 2 − 12 = 22 − 2⋅3
C. 48 ÷ 8 + 2³ = 5 + 3²
<h3>How to use order of operations?</h3>
The rule used for order of operations is PEMDAS and it states that the order of operation starts with the calculation enclosed in brackets or the parentheses first. Exponents (degrees or square roots) are then operated on, followed by multiplication and division operations, and then addition and subtraction.
Using the PEMDAS rule, the solutions would be as follows:
A. 9² − 7² = 20 ÷ (7 − 2)
81 - 49 = 20 ÷ 5
32 = 4
Thus, this is not true.
B. 8⋅7 ÷ 2 − 12 = 22 − 2⋅3
56 ÷ 2 − 12 = 22 - 6
28 - 12 = 16
16 = 16
Thus, this is true.
C. 48 ÷ 8 + 2³ = 5 + 3²
6 + 2³ = 5 + 9
6 + 8 = 14
14 = 14
Thus, this is true.
D. 150 ÷ 5² = 30 − 4² − 12
150 ÷ 25 = 30 − 16 − 12
6 = 30 - 28
6 = 2
Thus, this is not true.
