Solve (90-15-3)÷8: Order of Operations Practice

Question

$\frac{90-15-3}{8}=$

00:00 Solve

00:03 Let's calculate the numerator, one operation at a time from left to right

00:19 Let's break down 72 into factors 9 and 8

00:23 Let's reduce what we can

00:28 And this is the solution to the question

According to the order of operations rules, we will solve the fraction numerator.

Since the exercise only has a subtraction operation, we will solve it from left to right:

$90-15=75$

$75-3=72$

Now we will get the fraction:

$\frac{72}{8}$

We will simplify the numerator and denominator by 8 and get:

$\frac{9}{1}=9$

$9$
