To solve this problem, we follow the order of operations, which is also known as PEMDAS (Parentheses, Exponents, Multiplication and Division from left to right, Addition and Subtraction from left to right).
First, we do any calculations inside parentheses or brackets, but there are none in this problem.
Next, we perform any exponent calculations, but there are none in this problem.
Then, we perform any multiplication and division calculations from left to right. In this problem, the first calculation to perform is 30 ÷ 5, which equals 6.
Next, we perform any addition and subtraction calculations from left to right. In this problem, the next calculation to perform is 29 - 6 × 3. Using the multiplication before addition and subtraction, this simplifies to 29 - 18, which equals 11.
Finally, we perform any remaining addition and subtraction calculations from left to right. In this problem, the final calculation is 11 + 12, which equals 23.
Therefore, the solution to the given problem is 23.
To solve the given expression 29 − 30 ÷ 5 × 3 + 12, follow the order of operations known as PEMDAS (Parentheses, Exponents, Multiplication and Division, Addition, and Subtraction):
Step 1: Perform the division and multiplication from left to right.
30 ÷ 5 = 6
6 × 3 = 18
Step 2: Apply subtraction and addition from left to right.
29 − 18 + 12 = 23
Therefore, the solution to the given expression is 23.
To solve this problem, we need to follow the order of operations, also known as PEMDAS (Parentheses, Exponents, Multiplication and Division, Addition and Subtraction).
First, we perform the division: 30 ÷ 5 = 6.
Next, we perform the multiplication: 6 × 3 = 18.
Then, we perform the addition and subtraction in order:
29 - 18 + 12
Now we can solve from left to right: 29 - 18 = 11, and then 11 + 12 = 23.
Therefore, the solution to the problem 29 - 30 ÷ 5 × 3 + 12 is 23.
