Question

5(4) + √9 - 12 what is the answer to this problem

Answer 1

You would need to do order of operations.
So, first find the square root of 9
$\sqrt{9} = 3$
Then you would rewrite the equation
$5(4) + 3 - 12$
Then you would multiply 4 times 5
$4 \times 5 = 20$
Then you would rewrite the equation
$20 + 3 - 12$
Now work from left to right to solve.
$20 + 3 = 23$
Rewrite the equation

$33 - 12 = 11$
So the answer to the equation is.
$11$

Answer 2
