Enter parentheses to make the following expression have a Value of 45:
24/8*3+5*2+18/3
*= times/multiple
/= divided by
To make the expression have a value of 45, we need to use parentheses to control the order of operations.
The order of operations is as follows:
1. Parentheses
2. Exponents (i.e., powers and square roots, etc.)
3. Multiplication and Division (from left to right)
4. Addition and Subtraction (from left to right)
We can start by adding parentheses to group the operations that should be performed together:
(24/8)*3 + 5*2 + (18/3)
Next, we simplify within each set of parentheses:
(3)*3 + 5*2 + (6)
Now we can perform the multiplication and addition from left to right:
9 + 10 + 6
Finally, we add the numbers together:
9 + 10 + 6 = 25
As you can see, the expression evaluates to 25, not 45. Therefore, it is not possible to use parentheses to make the expression have a value of 45.
