Example 1): Do NOW:
Work out this problem in order.
2 × 4 + 42 + 48 ÷ (10 − 4) − 1 a) 9 ÷ 3 + 6 × 23
PEMDAS
= 2 × 4 + 42 + 48 ÷ 64 − 1
= 2 × 4 + 16 + 48 ÷ 64 − 1
= 8 + 16 + 48 ÷ 64 − 1
= 8 + 16 + 8 − 1
= 24 + 8 − 1
= 32 − 1 = 31 # b) 50 − (16 ÷ 22 ) + 3
(Hint = 42 = 4 × 4 = 16)
Do at HOME
1. 3 + 5 × 7
2. (1 + 3) × (8 − 4)
3. 6 − 6 + (7 − 0) − 7
4. 4 − 3 + (5 − 1) − 3
5. 3 + 9 × 8 − 62 c) 2 × 3 − (4 − 2) + 32 ÷ 3
6. 24/6 × 2 × 2/4
7. 2 + 3 × (4 + (6 × 3 − 8)) × 2
[HW] Work out the rest of problems at home then write them in your notebook.
