Question 252768: complete the table by providing the value of each mathematical expression.
Expression Value
5 + 2 * 8 __________

20/5 - 2 __________
4 + 10 * 3 - 2 __________

(4 + 10) * 3 - 2 __________

Answer by Theo(13342)   (Show Source): You can put this solution on YOUR website!
order of operations is as follows:

resolve exponents and radicals first working from left to right.
resolve multiplications and divisions next working from left to right.
resolve additions and subtractions next working from left to right.

resolve all parentheses first starting from most inner and extending outward to most outer, using the same order of operations within each one.

your problems are:

5 + 2 * 8 = 5 + 16 = 21


20/5 - 2 = 4 - 2 = 2

4 + 10 * 3 - 2 = 4 + 30 - 2 = 34 - 2 = 32


(4 + 10) * 3 - 2 = 14 * 3 - 2 = 42 - 2 = 40
