Subtraction and division are from the principal operations of PEMDAS. PEMDAS stands for parentheses, exponents, multiply and divide, add and subtract and thats it! Hope this helps and remember to mark as brainliest!
Answer:
There were 36 space rocks in total.
A. 16 is divisible by 2 but not divisible by 3
B. 23 is not divisible neither by 2 nor 3
C. 27 is not divisible by 2, however it's divisible by 3
D. 36 is divisible both by 2 and 3
So the only number we can focus on is 36:
36 ÷ 2 = 18
36 ÷ 3 = 12
36 ÷ 6 = 6
Answer: D, 36 supports the given conjecture.
