Question

If the expression `3-4^2+6/2` is evaluated, what would be done last?

Answer 1

The addition

Explanation:

Order of evaluation:

Parentheses (none in this case)
Exponentiation: `4^2`
Division and Multiplication: `6/2` (no multiplication)
Addition and Subtraction: there is a minus and a plus
`color(white)("XXX")`-when there are multiple operations at the same level
`color(white)("XXX")`they are performed from Left to Right.
`color(white)("XXX")`Since the minus appears to the left of the plus
`color(white)("XXX")`the minus occurs first (and the plus last).
