Help me with this problem using the order of operations (pemdas)5[(2+5)÷3]
they are just another set of parentheses, but shaped different so that you do not get confused. add first, divide 2nd, multiply3rd
Brackets are the same thing as parentheses. They just look different so you don't get confused with nests and nests of parentheses at a time. They have the same level in PEMDAS as well. Given: 5[(2 + 5) ÷ 3] P is first, so parentheses: 5[7 ÷ 3] We're still in brackets, so we continue with division: 5[7/3] Then multiplication: 35/3
