Hope this helps

Answer 2

5.73

Explanation:

The given expression is

`6.73-2* 5^(0) / 2`

To solve this expression we have to apply a right hierarchy of operations, according to this order, we first have to work exponents, then, multiplications and divisions (these two operations have the same rank), at the end, we solve sums and differences.

Sometimes this order of operations can change when there are some group signs, like parenthesis and brackets. When we don't have them, we directly apply the hierarchy of operations in that exact order.

So, we have

`6.73-2* 5^(0) / 2=6.73-2* 1 / 2\\ 6.73-2/2=6.73-1=5.73`

Therefore, the answers is 5.73.
