Transcript

The problem. Here is the problem: (10 minus 1) times (11 minus 4)/7 minus 10 squared. Evaluate a numerical expression.

Step by step. Read the expression. Simplify exactly. Evaluate using the order of operations (parentheses, exponents, multiplication and division, addition and subtraction).

The answer. So the answer is negative 91. Operations are applied in the standard order: parentheses, exponents, multiplication and division from left to right, then addition and subtraction from left to right.

Check. Decimal value: negative 91.

About order of operations
