To simplify the expression using PEMDAS, we start by performing the multiplication and division operations first, and then the addition and subtraction operations.
72 ÷ 12 + 26 − 8 ⋅ 3
First, we multiply 8 ⋅ 3:
= 72 ÷ 12 + 26 − 24
Next, we perform the division operation:
= 6 + 26 − 24
Finally, we perform the addition and subtraction operations from left to right:
= 32 - 24
= 8
So, the simplified expression is 8.
72 ÷ 12 + 26 − 8 ⋅ 3
First, we multiply 8 ⋅ 3:
= 72 ÷ 12 + 26 − 24
Next, we perform the division operation:
= 6 + 26 − 24
Finally, we perform the addition and subtraction operations from left to right:
= 32 - 24
= 8
So, the simplified expression is 8.
