rewrite the statement: 19+7/2x6+1 with 2 brackets to make its total value 2.
thats wrong
(19+7)/(2*6+1) = 26/13 = 2
To rewrite the statement "19 + 7 / 2 × 6 + 1" with 2 brackets in order to make its total value 2, we need to clarify the order of operations.
The given expression involves addition, division, multiplication, and parentheses can be used to control the order in which these operations are performed.
To achieve a total value of 2, we can add brackets to the expression as follows:
19 + (7 / (2 × 6 + 1))
Now, let's break down the expression step by step:
1. Evaluate the expression within the innermost parentheses first, i.e., "2 × 6 + 1":
2 × 6 + 1 = 12 + 1 = 13
2. Now, we have "7 / 13" remaining within the bracket:
7 / 13 ≈ 0.5385 (rounded to four decimal places)
3. Finally, add the remaining expression to the original 19:
19 + 0.5385 ≈ 19.5385
Since the resulting value is not 2, we can see that it is not possible to rewrite the given statement with 2 brackets to make the total value 2.
