Take your time and think about it so you can find the correct solution for the math problem.
\nDone? Below you can check if you picked the right number!\n
The correct answer…………The answer is 1.\n Based on the Order of Operations mnemonic (BODMAS for UK or PEMDAS for the US). When talking Without a multiplication symbol in the original question, the factor outside the brackets must be calculated as part of the Brackets\/Parentheses Multiplication\u201d (aka Multiplication by Juxtaposition) has higher precedence than normal Multiplication.\n 48 \u00f7 8(14 \u2013 8) = Again, the correct answer is 1. The 8 is directly attached to the (14 \u2013 8) and must be calculated as part Here is the wrong answer, even though it correctly did what is inside the brackets\/parentheses first: You might ask why this is wrong.\n The reason is that 8(6) is NOT THE SAME as 8 x 6 even if both are equal to 48.\n Did you pick the correct number?

\n
\nabout solving the Brackets\/Parentheses it means not just solving what is inside the brackets but also
\nany factors directly attached to those brackets\/parentheses.\n
\nstage and not as part of the later Multiplication\/Division stage (using left to right). This \u201cImplicit\n
\n48 \u00f7 8(6) =
\n48 \u00f7 48 =
\n1\n
\nof that term in the equation.\nWrong Answer\n
\n48 \u00f7 8(14 \u2013 8) =
