Question

Use the order of operations to simplify 12−2^3+4÷2+2^4

Answer 1

[AI-generated answer — Bot GPT 3.5]

To simplify 12 - 2^3 + 4 ÷ 2 + 2^4 using the order of operations (also known as PEMDAS), follow these steps:

1. Start with the exponentiation: 2^3 = 2 * 2 * 2 = 8
The expression now becomes: 12 - 8 + 4 ÷ 2 + 2^4

2. Continue with the exponentiation: 2^4 = 2 * 2 * 2 * 2 = 16
The expression now becomes: 12 - 8 + 4 ÷ 2 + 16

3. Move on to the division: 4 ÷ 2 = 2
The expression now becomes: 12 - 8 + 2 + 16

4. Finally, perform the addition and subtraction from left to right: (12 - 8) + 2 + 16 = 4 + 2 + 16 = 22

Therefore, 12 - 2^3 + 4 ÷ 2 + 2^4 simplifies to 22.

Answer 4

use PERIODS to simplify 72 divided by 12 + 26 - 8•3

Answer 5

[AI-generated answer — Bot GPT 3.5]

To simplify 72 divided by 12 + 26 - 8•3 using the PERIODS method (also known as PEDMAS or BODMAS), follow these steps:

1. Start with the parentheses: There are no parentheses in the expression.

2. Move on to the exponents: There are no exponents in the expression.

3. Next, perform the divisions: 72 divided by 12 = 6
The expression now becomes: 6 + 26 - 8 • 3

4. Then, complete the multiplications: 8 • 3 = 24
The expression now becomes: 6 + 26 - 24

5. Finally, perform the additions and subtractions from left to right: 6 + 26 - 24 = 32 - 24 = 8

Therefore, 72 divided by 12 + 26 - 8 • 3 simplifies to 8.

Answer 6

use the order of operations to simplify 6 over 3 in fractions + 4 divided by 2 + four over four as a fraction

Answer 7

[AI-generated answer — Bot GPT 3.5]

To simplify the expression "6 over 3 in fractions + 4 divided by 2 + four over four as a fraction" using the order of operations, follow these steps:

1. Start with the division: 6 divided by 3 = 2
The expression now becomes: 2 in fractions + 4 divided by 2 + four over four as a fraction

2. Continue with the addition and subtraction: Since there are no addition or subtraction signs in the expression, we can move on to fractions.

3. Convert "2 in fractions" to a fraction: "2 in fractions" means the fraction 2/1.
The expression now becomes: 2/1 + 4 divided by 2 + four over four as a fraction

4. Simplify 4 divided by 2: 4 divided by 2 = 2
The expression now becomes: 2/1 + 2 + four over four as a fraction

5. Look at "four over four as a fraction": Four over four is equal to 4/4, which simplifies to 1.
The expression now becomes: 2/1 + 2 + 1

6. Perform the addition: 2/1 + 2 + 1 = 2 + 2 + 1 = 5

Therefore, the simplified expression is 5.

Apologies for any confusion caused. Let's revisit and correctly simplify the expression "6 divided by 3 in fractions + 4 divided by 2 + four over four as a fraction" using the order of operations:

1. Start with the division: 6 divided by 3 = 2
The expression now becomes: 2 in fractions + 4 divided by 2 + four over four as a fraction

2. Convert "2 in fractions" to a fraction: "2 in fractions" means the fraction 2/1.
The expression now becomes: 2/1 + 4 divided by 2 + four over four as a fraction

3. Simplify 4 divided by 2: 4 divided by 2 = 2
The expression now becomes: 2/1 + 2 + four over four as a fraction

4. Simplify "four over four as a fraction": Four over four is equal to 1.
The expression now becomes: 2/1 + 2 + 1

5. Perform the addition: 2/1 + 2 + 1 = 2 + 2 + 1 = 5

Apologies once again for the earlier incorrect response. The simplified expression is indeed 5.
