Each step is shown along with what operation is done in PEMDAS (ex: if the M is highlighted in red, then this means that multiplication is being done)


5(14-39 divide by 3)+ 4 x 1/4

5(14-39 divide by 3)+ 4/4 ... PEMDAS

5(14-13)+ 4/4 ... PEMDAS

5(14-13)+ 1 ... PEMDAS

5(1)+ 1 ... PEMDAS

5 + 1 ... PEMDAS

6 ... PEMDAS

So 5(14-39 divide by 3)+ 4 x 1/4 = 6
