Math Problem Statement

1. 150 - 100 ÷ (-2), 2. -25 × (-4) + (-35), 3. -124 × (500 ÷ 50), 4. 250 + (-8) × 25, 5. 750 - (-2) × (-250) + (-50)

Solution

Let's solve the given problems one by one based on the image.

1. 150100÷(2)=150 - 100 \div (-2) =

We need to follow the order of operations (PEMDAS/BODMAS):

  • First, perform division: 100÷(2)=50100 \div (-2) = -50
  • Then, subtract: 150(50)=150+50=200150 - (-50) = 150 + 50 = 200

Answer: 200200

2. 25×(4)+(35)=-25 \times (-4) + (-35) =

  • First, perform multiplication: 25×(4)=100-25 \times (-4) = 100
  • Then, add 100+(35)=10035=65100 + (-35) = 100 - 35 = 65

Answer: 6565

3. 124×(500÷50)=-124 \times (500 \div 50) =

  • First, perform division inside parentheses: 500÷50=10500 \div 50 = 10
  • Then, multiply: 124×10=1240-124 \times 10 = -1240

Answer: 1240-1240

4. 250+(8)×25=250 + (-8) \times 25 =

  • First, perform multiplication: (8)×25=200(-8) \times 25 = -200
  • Then, add: 250+(200)=250200=50250 + (-200) = 250 - 200 = 50

Answer: 5050

5. 750(2)×(250)+(50)=750 - (-2) \times (-250) + (-50) =

  • First, multiply (2)×(250)=500(-2) \times (-250) = 500
  • Then, calculate the expression: 750500+(50)=75050050=200750 - 500 + (-50) = 750 - 500 - 50 = 200

Answer: 200200

Here are five related questions:

  1. How do we prioritize operations in complex expressions?
  2. Why does subtracting a negative number result in addition?
  3. How does the distributive property work in algebraic expressions?
  4. What is the difference between positive and negative multiplication?
  5. How can parentheses change the result of an expression?

Tip: Always solve expressions inside parentheses first and pay attention to signs when multiplying or dividing negative numbers.
