Ok you math Einsteins

[momoftwins]

omg, I have such a migraine to begin with ...

Can someone help. How can these be grouped by operation to come up with the sum indicated=

4 * 2 - 2squared divided 9 + 2 = 6

6 * 7 - 3 * 4 + 1 = 27


Thank you so much!!!!!!

are you doing your kids homework?

Well, the second one is (6*7) - 3*(4+1) = 27

That becomes 42 - 3*5 = 27


I'll think about the first one...

(6*7)-3*(4+1)=27 I think that's how it goes.

Oh I see someone else answered. We are all doing the easy one.

I didn't bother with the first one.

Wow!!! Good job and have fun on your trip!

Okay, the first one is:

(((4*2)-2)squared / 9) +2 = 6

((8-2)squared /9) +2 = 6

(36/9) + 2 = 6



OT: Thanks, Angel!

(4 x 2 - 2) squared divided by 9 + 2 = 6

36 divided by 9 + 2 = 6

By the end of the day, after all of the whining, I am almost ready to go back to 6th grade!!!! I have the worst migraine ever and my two 11 yr olds are whining like someone broke their legs! Usually I can take it!

Not today.

Here is a way to remember the "order of operations" when solving equations:

Please excuse my dear Aunt Sally.

Please = parentheses
excuse = exponents
my = multiply
dear = division
Aunt = addition
Sally =sally
