16 ÷ (-2) * (-4) OVER 2^3 + 4
4 - (-3) +1 OVER 2-2 ÷ (-2)
[16/-2*-4 ]/(2^3 + 4) ???
[-8*-4] / (8+4)
32*12 = 384
they are 2 separate problems
To solve these expressions, we need to follow the order of operations, also known as PEMDAS (Parentheses, Exponents, Multiplication and Division from left to right, and Addition and Subtraction from left to right).
1. Let's start with the first expression: 16 ÷ (-2) * (-4) OVER 2^3 + 4
Step 1: Evaluate the exponent: 2^3 = 2 * 2 * 2 = 8
Step 2: Evaluate the division and multiplication from left to right:
16 ÷ (-2) = -8
-8 * (-4) = 32
Step 3: Evaluate the addition:
32 OVER 8 + 4 = 32 ÷ 8 + 4 = 4 + 4 = 8
So, the result of the first expression is 8.
2. Now let's move to the second expression: 4 - (-3) + 1 OVER 2 - 2 ÷ (-2)
Step 1: Evaluate the division:
2 ÷ (-2) = -1
Step 2: Evaluate the subtraction:
4 - (-3) = 4 + 3 = 7
Step 3: Evaluate the addition:
7 + 1 = 8
Step 4: Evaluate multiplication and subtraction from left to right:
8 OVER 8 = 1
So, the result of the second expression is 1.
