What is the solution? Explain how to use order of operations to solve.

10 × (8 - 2) + 24 ÷ 4

66; Sample answer: According to the order of

operations we solve within the parentheses first:

10 × (8 - 2) + 24 ÷ 4 = 10 × 6 + 24 ÷ 4. Then

multiply and divide from left to right:

60 + 24 ÷ 4 = 60 + 6. Then add and subtract

from left to right: 60 + 6 = 66.
