Hi vivi2011, \(\displaystyle 7(8+2)-6 \div 9\) I think this is what you have. This would be the order: \(\displaystyle 7(10)-6 \div 9\) \(\displaystyle 70-\frac{2}{3}\) \(\displaystyle 69\frac{1}{3}\) Remember PEDMAS? Order of operations.... P==> Parentheses E==> Exponentiation D==> Division M==> Multiplication A==> Addition S==> Subtraction
