What is the solution to the expession
18 divided by 2 + (1/4)squared x 8 x 4
To solve the expression step-by-step, follow the order of operations, which is parentheses, exponents, multiplication and division (from left to right), and addition and subtraction (from left to right).
First, let's start with the expression inside the parentheses: (1/4) squared.
(1/4) squared = 1/4 x 1/4 = 1/16
Now we can substitute it back into the expression:
18 ÷ 2 + (1/16) x 8 x 4
Next, perform the multiplication/division from left to right:
18 ÷ 2 = 9
(1/16) x 8 = 1/2
1/2 x 4 = 2
Finally, perform the addition:
9 + 2 = 11
Therefore, the solution to the expression is 11.
The expression can be solved by following the order of operations (PEMDAS/BODMAS).
First, we need to evaluate the expression within the parentheses. The expression (1/4)squared means raising 1/4 to the power of 2. In other words, we square 1/4.
(1/4)^2 = 1/4 * 1/4 = 1/16
Next, we perform the multiplication. We multiply the result of (1/4)^2 by 8.
1/16 * 8 = 8/16 = 1/2
Now, we can solve the division. We divide 18 by 2.
18 / 2 = 9
Finally, we perform the addition. We add the result of the division to the previous result.
9 + 1/2 = 9 1/2 or 9.5
Therefore, the solution to the expression 18 ÷ 2 + (1/4)^2 x 8 x 4 is 9.5.
18/2 + (1/4)^2 * 8 * 4
18/2 + 1/16 * 8 * 4
9 + 1/2 * 4
