Question

Can someone help me with this problem? It has to be in PEMDAS order. 16+(4*2/2)-4

I think it's 18 but I'm not sure

Answer 1

16

Explanation:

According to PEMDAS:

First do operations within parentheses.

Then you do exponents.

Then you do multiplication and division (or division and multiplication), working left to right.

Finally, you do addition and subtraction (or subtraction and addition), working left to right.

16 + (4 × 2 / 2) − 4

First, we start with what's in the parentheses. We have multiplication and division. Working left to right:

16 + (8 / 2) − 4

16 + 4 − 4

Now we have addition and subtraction. Working left to right:

20 − 4

16
