Question 51414
Use the order of operations:  Going from left to right, first multiplication/division, then addition/subtraction.  So, going from left to right, we  encounter addition (+), subtraction (-), multiplication(*), and division (/).  Using the order of operations, multiplication has higher precedence, so we do that first; i.e., 6 * 5, which is 30.  Our equation now becomes {{{x=7+9-30/2}}}.  Using order of operations again, we divide 30/2, which is 15, producing the equation {{{x=7+9-15}}}.  Again, use order of operations to add 7+9, which is 16, giving equation {{{x=16-15}}}, which simplifies to {{{x=1}}}.
