ANSWER
Remember your PEMDAS order of operations.
What do you think the answer is? 2 or 18?
If you used the PEMDAS rule you would have to do the question in the parentheses first, which is 5 – 2, which equals 3.
Then you must shift over to the left equation and do 12 ÷ 2= 6.
Then you have to multiply 6 x 3 which equals 18 and there is your answer!
