Equation Calculation Steps

This solution details how to solve the mathematical equation (32 × 9) ÷ 18 + 52 = ? using the standard order of operations, also known as BODMAS/PEMDAS.

Understanding the Order of Operations (BODMAS/PEMDAS)

To solve this equation correctly, we need to follow the specific order:

  • Brackets / Parentheses: Operations inside brackets come first.
  • Orders / Exponents: Powers or square roots are calculated next.
  • Division and Multiplication: These are done from left to right.
  • Addition and Subtraction: These are done last, from left to right.

Solving the Equation: (32 × 9) ÷ 18 + 52 = ?

Let's break down the calculation step-by-step:

Step 1: Calculate the expression inside the Brackets

First, we perform the multiplication within the parentheses:

$32 \times 9 = 288$

The equation now looks like this: 288 ÷ 18 + 52 = ?

Step 2: Perform the Division

Next, according to the order of operations, we perform the division:

$288 \div 18 = 16$

The equation simplifies further to: 16 + 52 = ?

Step 3: Perform the Addition

Finally, we complete the calculation by performing the addition:

$16 + 52 = 68$

Conclusion on Calculation

Therefore, based on the standard order of operations, the result of the calculation (32 × 9) ÷ 18 + 52 is 68.

Reviewing the Options

The options provided for the question were 31, 33, 41, 43, and 47. The calculated result of 68 does not match any of the given multiple-choice options.
