RE: Order of operations - what is 6÷2(1+2) ?
Hello!
The answer is 1, but why? We must keep in mind that the sequence of operations is "x" and "÷" and after "-" and "+". First solve "( )" after, "[ ]" and after "{ }" For the given expression: Lets assume this expressiona as X =6÷2x(1+2) Soving "( )" X = 6÷2x(1+2) X =6÷2x(3) X = 6÷6 X =1 In RPN: 6 2 1 2 + x ÷ Solution, X = 1 Carlos - Brazil Time Zone: GMT -3 http://area48.com |
