Algebra.Com's Answer #698625 by Boreal(15235) You can put this solution on YOUR website! 1. \n" ); document.write( "Division first, so 64 divided by 8 is 8 and divided by 8 again is 1. \n" ); document.write( "In this instance, work straight across.\r \n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "PEMDAS \n" ); document.write( "parentheses (none) \n" ); document.write( "exponents (none) \n" ); document.write( "multiplication (none) \n" ); document.write( "division (yes). Division is first, and the rule here is that 64 divided by 8 with no parentheses exponents or multiplication is done first. Then that result is subject to the same rules, and again division is first. \n" ); document.write( "If it were 64 divided by (8 divided by 8), then the answer is 1, because parentheses are first.
