Question

Do you think two students who made no computation errors would get different values for this numerical expression> explain (4x35)+(36x8

Answer 1

Yes, they would get different values

Explanation:

Given

`(4 * 35) + (36 * 8)`

Required

Would there be different value for the expression?

From the question, we understand that both students made no computational errors. This doesn't mean that the students cannot make other errors.

For instance, the expression can be solved (wrongly) in the following ways;

`(4 * 35) + (36 * 8) \to 4 * 35 + 36 * 8 \to 140 + 36 * 8 \to 176 * 8 = 1408`

`(4 * 35) + (36 * 8) \to 4 * 35 + 36 * 8 \to 4 * 71 * 8 \to = 2272`

While the correct solution is:

`(4 * 35) + (36 * 8) \to 140 + 288 =428`

Hence, it is possible for two students to get different values
