QUESTION:
24 ÷ 2 ( 2 + 2) = ?
a) 48
b) 8
c) 3
The correct ANSWER is ⇒ c) 3
The standard accepted order of precedence is as follows:
- Parenthesis operations are performed first.
- If there is an exponential or radical number in the question, the second step is to solve these operations.
- Multiplication and division should be done.
- The fourth is addition and subtraction.
Finally, in multiple operations that need to be followed, the operation process will proceed from left to right.
