Three Distributions

100

2(3+7) + 4(15-13) + 5(25-20)=

2(10) + 4(2) + 5(5) 20 + 8 + 25 = 53 Answer = 53

200

5(29-19) - 4(16-12) - 6(42-38)=

5(10) - 4(4) - 6(4) 50 - 16 - 24 = 10 Answer = 10

300

1(2 * 2) * 1(3 * 1) * 2(1 * 1) =

1(4) * 1(3) * 2(1) 4 * 3 * 2 12 * 2 = 24 Answer = 24

400

9(45 * 0) * 7(3 * 1) * 5(2 * 2) =

9(0) * 7(3) * 5(4) 0 * 21 * 20 = 0 Answer = 0

500

2(2 * 2) * 1(2 * 1) * 3(3 * 1) =

2(2) * 1(2) * 3(3) 4 * 2 * 9 = 72 Answer = 72

Order of Operations

100

These are the steps to follow in Order of Operations.

What are Parenthesis, Exponents, Multiplication, Division, Add, Subtract. If there is more than one of the same operation, start from the left and work right in the equation.

200

In the below problem, this is the first step to follow. ( 8 + ( 16 - 1 ) ) × 5 =

What is subtraction. ( 8 + ( 16 - 1 ) ) x 5 = (16 - 1)

300

This is the second operation you preform in the below problem ( 95 - ( 1 + 6 ) ) × 2

What is subtraction. ( 95 - ( 1 + 6 ) ) × 2 (95 - 7)

400

This is the first operation you perform in the below equation. ( 5 + 9 ) × ( 8 - 3 ) =

( 5 + 9 ) × ( 8 - 3 ) = What is ( 5 + 9 ) then ( 8 - 3 ) then 14 x 5

500

65 + ( 6 × 4 ) ÷ 2 = 1) This is the third operation done in this problem 2) This is the answer to the problem

65 + ( 6 × 4 ) ÷ 2 = Step 1: (6 x 4) = 24 Step 2: 24 ÷ 2 = 12 Step 3: 65 + 12 1) addition 2) 77

Nested Parentheses

100

This is what you do when you have nested parentheses.

Do the problem in the most nested parentheses first Example ( 8 + ( 14 - 5 ) ) × 5 = Do 14 - 5 first Do 8 + 9 next Do 17 x 5 last

200

( 49 - ( 12 + 27 ) ) × 2 =

(49 - 39) x 2 = 10 x 2 = 20 Answer = 20

300

( 68 - ( 1 + 9 ) ) × 2 =

( 68 - ( 1 + 9 ) ) × 2 = ( 68 - 10) x 2 = 58 x 2 = 116 Answer = 116

400

( 25 - ( 1 + 3 ) ) × 2 =

( 25 - ( 1 + 3 ) ) × 2 = ( 25 - 4 ) x 2 = 21 x 2 = 42 Answer = 42

500

0 ( 2 (( 3 + 5 ) × ( 4 - 3 ))) =

0 ( 2 (( 3 + 5 ) × ( 4 - 3 ))) = 0 ( 2 ( 8 x 1)) = 0 ( 2 (8)) = 0 (16) = 0 Answer = 0
