Determine the first step in simplifying this expression. 13−2(1−15)÷4 (1 point) Responses 13−2 13 minus 2 2×1 2 times 1 1−15 1 minus 15 15÷4

Answer 1

To simplify the expression \( 13 - 2(1 - 15) ÷ 4 \), the first step according to the order of operations (PEMDAS/BODMAS) is to simplify the expression inside the parentheses.

Therefore, the first step is:

1 - 15

So, the correct response is:

1−15 (1 minus 15)
