Question

I need help with this does anybody know the answer

Answer 1

X = 50; Y = 50

Answers are the same by following the correct order of operations.

Explanation:

This problem deals with the correct order of operations. Multiplication is done before addition.

22 * 2 + 6 = X

44 + 6 = X

X = 50

6 + 22 * 2 = Y

6 + 44 = Y

Y = 50

The answers are the same despite the order in which the operations were written since by following the correct order of operations, you must do the multiplication first in each chase.
