Examples with solutions for Powers and Roots: Small Numbers

Exercise #1

6+644= 6+\sqrt{64}-4=

Video Solution

Step-by-Step Solution

To solve the expression 6+644= 6+\sqrt{64}-4= , we need to follow the order of operations (PEMDAS/BODMAS):


  • P: Parentheses (or Brackets)
  • E: Exponents (or Orders, i.e., powers and roots, etc.)
  • MD: Multiplication and Division (left-to-right)
  • AS: Addition and Subtraction (left-to-right)

In this expression, we first need to evaluate the square root since it falls under the exponent category:


64=8 \sqrt{64} = 8


Next, we substitute the computed value back into the expression:


6+84 6+8-4


We then perform the addition and subtraction from left to right:


6+8=14 6+8 = 14


144=10 14-4 = 10


Thus, the final answer is:


10 10

Exercise #2

3×3+32= 3\times3+3^2=

Video Solution

Step-by-Step Solution

Let's recall the order of operations:

  1. Parentheses

  2. Exponents and Roots

  3. Multiplication and Division

  4. Addition and Subtraction

There are no parentheses in this problem, so we'll start with exponents:

3*3+3² =

3*3+9 =

Let's continue to the next step, multiplication operations:

3*3+9 =

9 + 9 =

Now we're left with just a simple addition problem:

9+9= 18

And that's the solution!

Answer

18
