Question

what is the value of this expression? 6⋅[(32−8)÷4 2]

Answer 1

I didn't get the question whether it was 42 or 4×2

Answer 2

Answer:

                  6⋅[(32−8)÷4+2]= 48

Step-by-step explanation:

While solving an arithmetic expression we use the PEMDAS rule which is an acronym for Parentheses,exponent,Multiplication,Division,Addition and Subtraction.

i.e. it says that the parentheses term should be given most preference while solving and arithmetic expression, then after that the preference is given to exponent term, then to multiplication term, then to division  and addition and subtraction are treated at the same level.

Here we have the expression as:

          6⋅[(32−8)÷4+2]

We first solve the parentheses term.

i.e. 32-8=24

Now, 24÷4=6

Hence, the expression becomes:

6⋅[(32−8)÷4+2]=6·[6+2]

i.e.

6⋅[(32−8)÷4+2]=6·8

Hence, we have:

             6⋅[(32−8)÷4+2]= 48
