How do you simplify 5(2^3+4)/sqrt 36 times 7 using PEMDAS?
1 Answer
Explanation:
First, there are no explicitly written parentheses, but the numerator of the fraction must be computed first for the problem to make sense. This term is calculated by first computing
5 xx 12/sqrt(36) xx7
Next compute any terms with exponents. There is one exponent left which is hidden in the denominator. Note that
5 xx 12/6 xx7
Finally, perform all of the multiplication and division by moving left to right.
5 xx 12/6 xx 7=60/6 xx 7=10 xx 7=70
