How do you find the value of #18+6 div 3#?

Answer 1

#20#

More important than blindly following BODMAS, PEDMAS or any other of the numerous acronyms, is to understand what they mean and what they all have in common.

#color(red)(18)color(blue)(+6 div 3)# has 2 terms

#= color(red)(18) color(blue)(+2)#

To find the value of (18 + 6 \div 3), you follow the order of operations, which is commonly remembered by the acronym PEMDAS:

Parentheses
Exponents
Multiplication and Division (from left to right)
Addition and Subtraction (from left to right)

So, in this expression:

There are no parentheses or exponents.
We perform the division first: (6 \div 3 = 2).
Then, we perform the addition: (18 + 2 = 20).

Therefore, (18 + 6 \div 3 = 20).
