Question

Simplify the expression by arranging the steps in sequence, based on the order of operations 1/6 (30x 24)-1/7(63x-7x)

Answer 1

you would go by pemdas so it would be (63x-7x)24-1/7

Answer 2

`4-3x`

Explanation:

We will simplify the expression:

`(1)/(6)(30x+24)-(1)/(7)(63x-7x)`

using the order of operation PEMDAS(parenthesis, exponents, multiplication and division and addition and substraction) like this:

we will solve first inside the parenthesis

`(1)/(6)(30x+24)-(1)/(7)(56x)`

now we multiply and divide

`5x+4-8x`

we add and substract

`4-3x`
