Evaluate 60÷5(7-5)

Problem

60÷5*(7−5)

Solution

1. Simplify the expression inside the parentheses by subtracting 5 from 7.

7−5=2

2. Substitute the result back into the expression, which now involves division and multiplication.

60÷5*(2)

3. Perform the division first, following the order of operations (PEMDAS/BODMAS) which dictates that multiplication and division are performed from left to right.

60÷5=12
