Question

Evaluate : 6 x 3 – 14 ÷ 2

Answer 1

To solve : $6\times 3-14\div2$

Solution:-

• To solve the above equation we will follow BODMAS rule.

• It is the rule used to remember the order of operations to be followed while solving expressions in mathematics.

• where,  

                 $\begin{array}{l} \\B= brackets\\\mathrm{O}=\text { order of powers or rules } \\\mathrm{D}=\text { Division } \\\mathrm{M}=\text { multiplication } \\\mathrm{A}=\text { addition } \\\mathrm{S}=\text { subtraction }\end{array}$

• According to above rule we will solve $6\times 3-14\div2$ arranging terms properly:

        $6\times 3-\frac{14}{2}$

       $= 18 -7 \\= 11$

Hence, value of $6\times 3-14\div2$ is $11$ .
