solve this:
36 ÷ 4(5 - 2) + 6 =
explain how you got to this answer.
then explain how you got 2 for the original problem.

THIS.
i didn't wanna say it until someone mentioned it. x/2(9+3) is NOT the same as x/2*(9+3). The division sign makes a hell of a difference in this case.
Dropout out of whatever school you're in.
you go to washington, though.
and Wr up there^ has the right idea. props to me not being the only one who knows how to do simple algebra.
My lecturer (with a math degree, among other qualifications) said that this is the correct way to do this formula.Originally Posted by willsndvl

Durty pancakes there is a difference between 2 * (9 + 3) and 2(9 + 3). If the question was 48/2 * (9 + 3) the answer would be 288. But being the 2 is attached to the brackets you have to do the entire bracket formula of 2(9 + 3). The 2 being attached means you must include that in the equation. If it was 2 * (9 + 3) then you don't HAVE to multiply it by 9+3.
