(3^2+(8/4+4^2))
Could you please help me with this problem???
(3^2 + (8/4 + 4^2))
Parenthesis first:
(8/4 + 4^2)
8/4 = 2
4^2 = 16
Now add the totals.
(2 + 16) = (18)
Now you should have:
(3^2 + (18))
Now solve 3^2:
3^2 = 9
Now you should have:
(9 + (18))
Now add the two numbers.
9 + 18 = 27
So, 27 is the answer.
I hope this helps! :)
Thanks
You're welcome, Amy. :)
Of course! Let's break down the problem step by step:
Step 1: Simplify the expression inside the innermost parentheses.
In this case, inside the parentheses, we have the addition operation with two numbers: (8/4 + 4^2).
Step 2: Simplify any exponentiation operations.
Next, we need to simplify the term 4^2, which means we need to square the number 4.
4^2 = 4 * 4 = 16.
Step 3: Perform any remaining operations from left to right.
Now that we have the result of 4^2, we can continue simplifying the expression inside the parentheses.
8/4 = 2.
Step 4: Evaluate the addition operation.
Now we have (2 + 16) inside the parentheses.
2 + 16 = 18.
Step 5: Evaluate the exponentiation operation, if any.
Finally, we need to square 3 in the expression 3^2.
3^2 = 3 * 3 = 9.
Step 6: Perform the remaining addition operation.
Now we have 9 + 18.
9 + 18 = 27.
So the final answer is 27.
