1. 8 + 4 − 3
No parentheses or exponents. Just left-to-right addition and subtraction.
→ 8 + 4 = 12
→ 12 − 3 =
9
✔ Answer: 9

2. 38 − 19 + 12
Left to right:
→ 38 − 19 = 19
→ 19 + 12 =
31
✔ Answer: 31

3. 7 + 9 × (3 + 8)
First, parentheses:
→ (3 + 8) = 11
Now: 7 + 9 × 11
Multiplication before addition:
→ 9 × 11 = 99
Then: 7 + 99 =
106
✔ Answer: 106

4. 15 − 2³ ÷ 4
Exponent first:
→ 2³ = 8
Now: 15 − 8 ÷ 4
Division next:
→ 8 ÷ 4 = 2
Then: 15 − 2 =
13
✔ Answer: 13
---
5. 55 ÷ 11 + 7 × (2 + 14)
Parentheses first:
→ (2 + 14) = 16
Now: 55 ÷ 11 + 7 × 16
Division and multiplication from left to right:
→ 55 ÷ 11 = 5
→ 7 × 16 = 112
Now: 5 + 112 =
117
✔ Answer: 117
---
6. 5³ − 12 ÷ 3
Exponent first:
→ 5³ = 125
Division next:
→ 12 ÷ 3 = 4
Then: 125 − 4 =
121
✔ Answer: 121
---
7. 8 × (2⁴ − 3) + 8
Exponent inside parentheses:
→ 2⁴ = 16
Now: 8 × (16 − 3) + 8
Parentheses:
→ 16 − 3 = 13
Now: 8 × 13 + 8
Multiplication:
→ 8 × 13 = 104
Then: 104 + 8 =
112
✔ Answer: 112
---
8. 9 + 4³ × (20 − 8) ÷ 2 + 6
Parentheses:
→ (20 − 8) = 12
Exponent:
→ 4³ = 64
Now: 9 + 64 × 12 ÷ 2 + 6
Multiplication and division left to right:
→ 64 × 12 = 768
→ 768 ÷ 2 = 384
Now: 9 + 384 + 6
Add left to right:
→ 9 + 384 = 393
→ 393 + 6 =
399
✔ Answer: 399
