Example Questions
Example Question #81 : Write And Interpret Simple Expressions That Record Calculations: Ccss.Math.Content.5.Oa.A.2
Select the equation that reflects the phrase below.
Subtract 
Because of our order of operations, the division problem needs to come first. We list the subtraction last because we are subtracting a number by the quotient, so the quotient needs to be listed first.
Remember, order of operations is PEMDAS= parentheses, exponents, multiplication/division, addition/subtraction.
Example Question #82 : Write And Interpret Simple Expressions That Record Calculations: Ccss.Math.Content.5.Oa.A.2
Select the equation that reflects the phrase below.
Remember, order of operations is PEMDAS= parentheses, exponents, multiplication/division, addition/subtraction.
Example Question #83 : Write And Interpret Simple Expressions That Record Calculations: Ccss.Math.Content.5.Oa.A.2
Select the equation that reflects the phrase below.
Add 
Difference means the answer to a subtraction problem. Because we are adding a number to the difference, we need to do the subtraction problem first. Since we are adding and subtracting in this question, we do not need to use parentheses because with addition and subtraction you work the problem out from left to right. So first we have the subtraction problem, then we add.
Remember, order of operations is PEMDAS= parentheses, exponents, multiplication/division, addition/subtraction.
Example Question #84 : Write And Interpret Simple Expressions That Record Calculations: Ccss.Math.Content.5.Oa.A.2
Select the equation that reflects the phrase below.
Add 
Product means the answer to a multiplication problem. Becuase of our order of operation rules, the multiplication problem will come first, regardless of if it's listed first or second. Then we add.
Remember, order of operations is PEMDAS= parentheses, exponents, multiplication/division, addition/subtraction.
Example Question #161 : Common Core Math: Grade 5
Select the equation that reflects the phrase below.
First subtract 
Because we want to subtract 28 and 17 first, we need to set that off into parentheses due to the order of operation rules. Remember: without parentheses, division would come before subtraction. The parentheses around (28 - 17) tells you that the subtraction comes first, then we can do the division by 3.
