12×(14÷7)=(12×14) ÷(12×7). is this statement true?????
Answers
Answer:
no the statement is false as multiplication sign can be broken in two parts as you will get completley different answer
on solving lhs we get
12X2=24
but onsolving rhs we get
12X14/12X7=2
Step-by-step explanation:
Answer:
No, the statement is not true.
Step-by-step explanation:
First, let's figure out what the left side of the equation equals using PEMDAS ( parenthesis, exponents, multiplication, division, addition, subtraction ):
P ( parenthesis ):
14/7=2
This changes the equation to 12*2
E ( exponents ): Nothing to do here
M ( multiplication ):
12*2=24
D ( division ): Nothing to do here
A ( addition ): Nothing to do here
S ( subtraction ): Nothing to do here
So, the left side of the equation equals 24.
Next, let's figure out what the right side of the equation equals, still using PEMDAS ( parenthesis, exponents, multiplication, division, addition, subtraction ):
P ( parenthesis ):
12*14= 168
12*7= 84
This changes the equation to 168/84
E ( exponents ): Nothing to do here
M ( multiplication ): Nothing to do here
D ( division ):
168/84= 2
A ( addition ): Nothing to do here
S ( subtraction ): Nothing to do here
So, the right side of the equation equals 2.
When I put the left and right side of the equation together, I get 24=2, which is false. So, the equation/ statement is NOT true.
