Question 970165: Hi,
I need help with my homework involving with expressions. I`m really frustrated about my question. It says, I have to let p=6 and find 15 expression that equal 20. It would help so much if you help me. I tried some on my own.
p=6
Also I need help on my other homework. I solved it, but I just need a clarification if I did it right or wrong.
4*8+8/4-3=31
4x8+2-3
32+2-3
34-3
31=31
I used BEDMAS. Thank you so much.

Question 1: 15 expressions that equal 20 when p = 6
1. p + 14 = 20
2. 2p + 8 = 20
3. 4p - 4 = 20
4. (6p + 4)/2 = 20
5. 5p/10 + 18 = 20
6. 3p + 2 = 20
7. 9p/2 + 3 = 20
8. 2(p + 13) - 16 = 20
9. 62 - 7p = 20
10. 60/5p = 20
11. 10p/5 + 8 = 20
12. 12p/2 - 16 = 20
13. (20p + 20)/7 = 20
14. 6(p + 4)/3 = 20
15. (8p+12)/3 = 20

Question 2: Your answer is correct

4 x 8 + 8 / 4 - 3 ----->

(4 x 8) + (8 / 4) - 3 ----->

32 + 2 - 3 ----->
