Math Problem Statement

6^2÷3x4-28+4

Solution

Let's solve the expression step by step, following the order of operations (PEMDAS: Parentheses, Exponents, Multiplication and Division (from left to right), Addition and Subtraction (from left to right)).

Given expression:
62÷3×428+46^2 \div 3 \times 4 - 28 + 4

  1. Exponents:
    62=366^2 = 36
    So the expression becomes:
    36÷3×428+436 \div 3 \times 4 - 28 + 4

  2. Division and Multiplication (from left to right):
    First, divide:
    36÷3=1236 \div 3 = 12
    Then multiply:
    12×4=4812 \times 4 = 48
    Now the expression is:
    4828+448 - 28 + 4

  3. Subtraction and Addition (from left to right):
    First, subtract:
    4828=2048 - 28 = 20
    Then add:
    20+4=2420 + 4 = 24

So, the final result is:
24\boxed{24}

Here are 5 related questions you might find interesting:

  1. How would the result change if the exponent were different, say 636^3?
  2. What happens if parentheses are added, like (62÷3)×4(6^2 \div 3) \times 4?
  3. Can you apply this method to a similar problem involving fractions?
  4. How does the order of operations affect the result if the problem is written as 62÷(3×4)28+46^2 \div (3 \times 4) - 28 + 4?
  5. What are some common mistakes people make when using the order of operations?

Tip: Always solve exponents and handle multiplication/division in the order they appear from left to right before proceeding to addition and subtraction.
