ANSWER:
Have you come up with an answer?
If you get 11, then congratulations! 11 is the correct answer.
If you did not get 11, do not worry. We can take a look at how to solve the math problem.
The rule is to apply PEMDAS in the above math task. PEMDAS is an acronym for Parentheses, Exponents, Multiplication, Division, Addition, and Subtraction.
This rule dictates that you need to solve the equation in the parentheses first.
This means that you will need to solve (12 ÷ 4 + 1) = 4 first.
Then, you can move on to solve the multiplication operation, which is 1 x 4, followed by the subtraction, 15 – 4 = 11.
It is okay if you did not get the answer right. You can always keep this rule in mind and apply it when you encounter a new math problem in the future!
