Make each sentence true...
48 divided by 6 plus 2 x4 =24
45= 54 -24/6 minus 5
0= 54 minus 24 times 6 -5
48/6 + 2 * 4 ≠ 24
48/6 + 2 * 4 = 8 + 8 = 16
Second one is true.
45 = 54 - 24/6 - 5 = 54 - 4 -5
See if you can do the third one yourself.
0 = 54 - (24)(6-5)
To make each sentence true, we need to properly apply the order of operations, also known as PEMDAS (parentheses, exponents, multiplication/division, addition/subtraction). Let's break down each sentence and solve them step-by-step:
1. 48 divided by 6 plus 2 times 4 = 24
To solve this, we need to divide 48 by 6, multiply 2 by 4, and then add the result of the multiplication to the division.
(48 ÷ 6) + (2 × 4) = 8 + 8 = 16
So, the statement is false as the correct answer is 16, not 24.
2. 45 = 54 - 24/6 minus 5
To solve this, we first need to perform the division 24/6, then subtract the result from 54, and finally subtract 5.
45 = 54 - (24 ÷ 6) - 5 = 54 - 4 - 5 = 45
The sentence is true since the value on both sides is equal.
3. 0 = 54 - 24 times 6 - 5
Again, following the order of operations, we need to solve the multiplication, then perform subtraction twice.
0 = 54 - (24 × 6) - 5 = 54 - 144 - 5 = 54 - 149 = -95
Therefore, the statement is false as the value on the left side is 0, not -95.
In conclusion, only the second sentence is true.
