Math Problem Statement

100 divided by 4(2+3)

Solution

To solve the expression 100÷4(2+3)100 \div 4(2+3), we need to follow the order of operations (PEMDAS/BODMAS):

  1. Parentheses: First, calculate inside the parentheses.
  2. Exponents: Then, deal with exponents (if any).
  3. Multiplication and Division: Next, perform multiplication and division from left to right.
  4. Addition and Subtraction: Finally, perform addition and subtraction from left to right.

Let's solve it step-by-step:

  1. Calculate inside the parentheses: 2+3=52 + 3 = 5

    Now the expression becomes: 100÷4(5)100 \div 4(5)

  2. Interpret the multiplication: Here, 4(5)4(5) means 4×54 \times 5.

    So, the expression now is: 100÷20100 \div 20

  3. Perform the division: 100÷20=5100 \div 20 = 5

Final Answer:

100÷4(2+3)=5100 \div 4(2+3) = 5
