Question

Simplify expression50 -4* 3 + 6

Answer 1

Answer: 44

Explanation:

The algebraic hierarchy of operations tells us that we must first solve the multiplications before the addition and subtraction.

So in the expression that we have:

$50-4\times3+6$

We must first solve the multiplication between 4 and 3 (wich is 12), we get the following:

$50-12+6$

Next, we can solve the substractions and additions, in the order we wish, we can do first the substraction (50-12=38):

$38+6$

And then the addition:

$38+6=44$

The result is 44.
