Solve (13×2)-(12×1.5): Mixed Operations with Decimals

Question

$(13\times2)-(12\times1.5)=$

00:00 Parentheses come first, so we'll start with exercises containing them

00:09 We are left with a simple addition exercise

00:11 And that's the solution!

According to the order of operations, we will first solve the multiplication exercises in parentheses:

$(13\times2)=26$

$(12\times1.5)=18$

Now we will subtract:

$26-18=8$

$8$
