2×9= 18
18÷9= 2
Answer: 2 cups of fruit punch.
----------
Explanation: so, you divide. why do I know this? because it doesn't say "times," (multiplication word) "more than," (addition word) "less than/ left over." (subtraction word) so what your looking for is "equally," and "each."
So, can you do 2÷9? no, you cant. so you have to multiply 2×9 to get the answer. and what's the answer? 18!
so, now, can you divide 18÷9? yes!! why? because you can only divide big numbers like 18. and you can't divide small numbers like 2 or 9. do you get what I'm saying?
so, what's 18÷9? 2!!
I hope this helps! :) if you still don't understand it just please let me know :)
Given:

He does mistake in the order of giving preference.
We should give preference in the order, division, multiplication, addition, subtraction.
But, he gave the first preferrence to the subtraction.
72-8=64
Next, he used division
64/2=32
Next he adds 32 with 8.
So, he gets 50.
But the actual simplification is,
Simplifying we get,

Hence, the correct value of the expression is 86.
Answer:
answer is 0 meaning there is no solution
Step-by-step explanation:
Answer:
5 & 1
Step-by-step explanation:
We can use the quadratic formula to solve this:
Quadratic Formula = 
So we will have 2 answers (roots).
a is the coefficient of x^2 (2)
b is the coefficient of x (-12)
c is the constant (10)
Now, substituting, we get:
x = 
Hence the roots are 5 & 1
Answer: The boots were marked $86.
Step-by-step explanation: We know Mica's total was $100 for the bill. He got the only hat left marked $12, and a pair of boots. Before tax and after a 50% sale, her total is $100. Since she spent $12 for the hat, we know the rest of the money is going towards the boots. The boots will cost $86.
Hat($12) + Boots($86) = 100
