Yeah. Ns kept saying they have actually to attend to the Parantheses first, PEMDAS, and all, yet their logic gained them to 60/5*(2) so climate they complied with that v 12*2 = 24. I kept telling them there to be no "*" authorize so they had actually to multiply an initial because they still have to attend to parantheses first, yet alas, lock didn"t believe me.

You are watching: 60÷5(7-5)=

No Gh0sty!

Parentheses first: 60/5*2

Divide and Multiply have the exact same precedence for this reason you job-related from left to right:

60/5*2→ 12*2→ 24

If friend legit put the equation right into a real life TI-84 calculator together "60/5(7-5)" you"ll get 6. The clinical calculator top top the computer system is incompatible with that equation because itforcesyou to location the multiplication price in between the 5 and also the (.

What you"re saying here is that the equation is 60 end 5 climate multiply by 2 instead of 60 over 5(2)

It doesn"t say that there"s a multiplication authorize in the center of 5 and (7-2). Including a sign there would make the equation different. It would be regrouped into:

60 ÷ 5 × ( 7 - 5 ) = ( 60 ÷ 5 ) ( 7 - 5 )

Which is various from the initial equation.

But if no multiplication authorize was added, it would be completely "60 separated by the product the 5 and also 7 minus 2" which is 6.

60 ÷ 5 ( 7 - 2 )

60 ÷ 5 ( 2 )

60 ÷ 10

6

Remember the the hatchet 5(7-5) is a monomial hatchet that has actually been simplified from (35-25) and also that you need to DISTRIBUTE the 5 earlier into the brackets to fix the brackets.

It says

60 ÷ 5 ( 7 - 2 )

60 ÷ 5 ( 2 )

60 ÷ 10

6

But that"s a typo. Meant

60 ÷ 5 ( 7 - 5)

60 ÷ 5 ( 2 )

60 ÷ 10

6

There is naught in the original expression to suggest that 5(7-5) has actually been factored from (35 - 25). If it had actually been the correct way to express the an outcome would have been 60/(5(7 - 5))

60/5(7 - 5) has actually an include multiplication so must be read as 60/5*(7-5)

To avoid ambiguity either usage parentheses or write as$$\frac605(7-5)\text or\frac605(7-5)$$as appropriate.
