Which has a different answer?

11 - 6 + 3
6 + 11 - 3
3 + 11 - 6
11 + 3 - 6

1 answer

Let's calculate each expression step by step:

  1. 11 - 6 + 3

    • First: 11 - 6 = 5
    • Then: 5 + 3 = 8
    • Result: 8
  2. 6 + 11 - 3

    • First: 6 + 11 = 17
    • Then: 17 - 3 = 14
    • Result: 14
  3. 3 + 11 - 6

    • First: 3 + 11 = 14
    • Then: 14 - 6 = 8
    • Result: 8
  4. 11 + 3 - 6

    • First: 11 + 3 = 14
    • Then: 14 - 6 = 8
    • Result: 8

Now we summarize the results:

  • 11 - 6 + 3 = 8
  • 6 + 11 - 3 = 14
  • 3 + 11 - 6 = 8
  • 11 + 3 - 6 = 8

From these calculations, the expression 6 + 11 - 3 has a different answer (14) compared to the others which all equal 8.
