This is so confusing.
Do I have to break the PEMDAS rule?
How do you solve for it? Thank you :(
125 ÷ 25 × 3 + 16 ÷ 8 - 33 ÷ 11 + 10 ÷ 5
Rewrite
( ( 125 ÷ 25 ) × 3 ) + ( 16 ÷ 8 ) - ( 33 ÷ 11 ) + ( 10 ÷ 5 )
Divide
( ( 5 ) × 3 ) + ( 2 ) - ( 3 ) + ( 2 )
Multiply
15 + 2 - 3 + 2
Add/Subtract
16
PEMDAS is written confusingly, it is better to think of it as:
Parentheses
Exponents
Multiplication OR Division
Addition OR Subtraction
For the last two rows, you just choose which ever comes first, when reading from left to right. So the first part of the problem:
125 ÷ 25 × 3
Multiplication is first in PEMDAS, BUT division is first when reading left to write, so you would divide first.
Pemdas = Parentheses, exponents, multiplication, division, addition, subtraction
No parentheses, no exponents
Next is multiplication, perform the multiplication
125÷25x3+16÷8-33÷11+10÷5
25x3=75, so
125÷75+16÷8-33÷11+10÷5
Next perform divsion
125÷75 = 1.667
16÷8=2
33÷11=3
10÷5=2
so:
1.667 + 2 - 3 +2
= 2.667
125 divided by 25 x 3 + 16 divided by 8 - 33 divided by 11 + 10 divided by 5 =
125 divided by 75 + 16 divided by 8 - 33 divided by 11 + 10 divided by 5 =
1 2/3 + 2 - 3 + 2 =
5 2/3 - 3 =
2 2/3.
from left to right..
Here's what you do....
