  • Q #1: Simplify the expression below. Which of the following is correct? \(\frac{[3 (2 + 6 \ast 4)]}{(26 \div 2)}\)  

    A. 6

    B. 8

    C. 12

    D. 9

    Answer Explanation

    We follow the order of operations to solve the given expression.

    First, we start with the numerator and solve it as follows

    [3(2+6*4)]

    We start with multiplication in inner brackets, 6*4=24. The expression becomes

    [3(2+24)]

    Then, we conduct the addition of 2+24=26. Then, the expression becomes

    [3(26)]=3*26=78

    Now, we solve for denominator, which is 26/2=13.

    Thus, the expression is reduced into

    \(\frac{[3(2+6\ast4)]}{(26\div2)}=\frac{78}{13}=6\)

    The expression reduces into 6.

  • Q #2: Which of the following is the equivalence in pounds for 50 kg? (2.2 lb=1 kg)
