Q66. - Algebra 1

Question

Evaluate each expression. (Lesson $1-2$)

$14÷2\cdot 6-5^2$

Step-by-Step Solution

Answer

The value of expression is 17.

Step 1. Given expression.

$14÷2\cdot 6-5^2$

Step 2. BODMAS rule.

The order of operations while solving an mathematical expression is given by BODMAS rule, first solve brackets, then powers or roots then division/multiplications(that comes first from left side of expression) and last subtraction/addition(that comes first from left side of expression).

Step 3. Solve the expression.

Solve the given expression using BODMAS rule:

$\begin{array}{c}14÷2\cdot 6-5^2=14÷2\cdot 6-25\\ =7\cdot 6-25\\ =42-25\\ =17\end{array}$

Thus,

$14÷2\cdot 6-5^2=17$
