Question 53872: I have to do the following problem and I'm not sure if I have it correct.
Evaluate 8 + 2 x 5 - 24 /6 x 2
This is what I have done: 8 + 2 x 5 - 4 x 2
8 + 10 -4 X 2
8 + 10 - 8
18 - 8 = 10
So my answer is 10. Is this correct? Please Help!

8 + 10 - 24 / 6 * 2
8 + 10 - 4 * 2
8 + 10 - 8
18 - 8
10
