How do you know the correct order in which to evaluate algebraic expressions?
Answers
In solving algebraic expressions, there is an order in which to solve it.
1) perform the operation inside the parenthesis first 2) then perform the operation with the exponents 3) apply multiplication and division from left to right of the equation. 4) apply addition and subtraction from left to right of the equation.
To evaluate algebraic expressions there is no order. You just need to follow something called pemdas. The way to remember this is
p = please e = excuse m = my d = dear a= aunt s = sally
So just remember Please excuse my dear aunt sally or pemdas.
P = parentheses (Apply from left tor right) E = exponent (Apply from left tor right) M = multiplication (Apply from left tor right) D = division (Apply from left tor right) A = addition (Apply from left tor right) S = subtraction (Apply from left tor right)
Then solve!

Jamie has a board that is 8 feet long. He cuts the board into three equal pieces. How long is each piece
Answers
so picture a 8feet long board, and you basically cut it into 3 equal pieces as it says. so you should set it up as 8/3 which is 2.6666666. so you can round that up by 2.67 per each equal pieces.
Divide 8 into 3 pieces (this can be set out as 8/3) and you get 2.6666... Or you can round it up to 2.7.
What is 1 5/12 + 4 1/6 in its simplest form?
Answers
The answer is 5 7/12, here's why:
First convert the mixed numbers into improper fractions to make it simpler to deal with.
1 5/12 = 17/12 4 1/6 = 25/6
Now make them equivalent.
17/12 can stay the same, 25/6 can become 50/12
Now it's just 17/12 + 50/12 Just add the numerators! 17/12 + 50/12 = 67/12
All we have to do from here is simplify 67/12. 12 goes into 67 5 times, with a remainder of 7. 5 becomes the whole number, and our fraction is the remainder (7) over 12.
So 67/12 = 5 7/12. This is as simplified as the answer can get.
Hope this helps!
Another word problem. Please show how you get the answer. A particular number was divided by 5 and then 12 was taken from that quotient. Finally, this difference was multiplied by 5. Given the product was -55, what was the number?
Answers
The number would be 5. 5 divided by 5 equals 1. Then 1-12 would be -11 and then you do -11 times 5 which gives you -55!
