order of operation
16 divided by 4 . 2=
I just did 16 divided by 4 which is 4 then multiply it by 2 which is 8
Am I right
actually multiplication and division are performed in the order they come, from left to right
so we have 16 รท 4 * 2
= 4 * 2
= 8

Than you multiply it first like 4x2, than you divide it last?
Right.
Online, * means multiply.
oh okay, thank you
You're welcome.
I'm sorry, but I goofed. Of course, Reiny is right.

Tysm "Reiny" is right. :)
Yes, you are correct! The order of operations, also known as BIDMAS or PEMDAS, is a set of rules to determine the correct sequence of calculations in an expression.
In this case, you calculated 16 divided by 4 first, which equals 4. Then, you multiplied the result, 4, by 2, which equals 8.
Just to clarify, the order of operations states that you should perform calculations in the following order:
1. Parentheses (or brackets): Simplify any expressions within parentheses first.
2. Exponents (or indices): Calculate any numbers with exponents next.
3. Multiplication and division: Perform any multiplication or division operations from left to right.
4. Addition and subtraction: Perform any addition or subtraction operations from left to right.
Since there are no parentheses, exponents, or addition/subtraction operations in your expression, you correctly divided 16 by 4 first and then multiplied the result by 2.
