Question

16+8-5x2=14 were do you put the parentheses to make the equation equal to 14

Answer 1

You would put them around 5×2.
This gives you the sum:
16+8-(5×2)
=24-10
=14

Answer 2

16-8 = 24. To make it 14, you should remove 10. And 5*2 = 10.
So the parentheses should be put around 5*2.
16 + 8 - (5*2) = 14.
Just for more info, there shouldn't be any parentheses in this equation because following the order of operations, the multiplication will be calculated first either ways. But it's not wrong to put parentheses.

Hope this Helps! :)
